I am trying to mount another linux samba mount on my linux machine. I can only mount using root account and when i do this the permissions for the samba mount are all owned by group root and user root. I want to have rw access to this by myself. I have even specified in the options of smbmount a uid and gid but still no luck. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Need Mail bonding?

Mount a CIFS/SMB filesystem is not much different from a regular block device, the restrictions and security limitations still applies, you can add a line to /etc/fstab to allow users to mount it and specify the options. You can also use SUID approach or have it automounted on boot or other software. And using uid,gid is supposed to work. Can you show the command lines, permissions and errors? (Logs?)
