Urban,
  Your question is very helpful. I just tried again but this time I tried
creating a file as root. 
echo hello >> test.file
I can create a file without any problem on the remote share. 
However my normal session, that is not logged in as root, is unable to do
the same command and responds with a 'Permission denied' message.
However I
want anyone logged in to be able to access the share and be able to create
file. How do I do this?
Cheers Andy

Read the smbmount manpage on how to change the ownership and permission
that smbfs sets on everything.
