[Samba] arrange users write permission on mounted share
Setup: Genoo linux samba-3.0.23a How can I arrange for normal user to have write permission on cifs mounted share, when the share is winxp. I've just been resorting to using root account for that, but it is getting where I often need to write as user for one reason or another. smbmount and mount.cifs both say to use uid=USERNAME to say who owns files on the mounted device but that still doesn't allow a user to write there. My current mount command from fstab looks like this (wrapped for mail): //chub/chub-e /mnt/chub-e \ cifs noauto,username=reader,uid=reader,credentials=/etc/samba/CifsCredentials
