For me the following entry in smb.conf fixed it: unix extensions = no
When a *nix machine mounts a remote samba share a CIF unix extension maps the remote share's file permissions to the local mount. This overrides and uid or gid settings in the mount command. To disable the unix extension to CIFs add 'unix extensions = no' to your smb.conf on the server and restart samba. You should now be able to mount the share and specify the local uid/gid ownership in the mount command normally: mount -t smbfs //fileserver/share /mnt/point -o credentials=credentials.file,uid=localuid,gid=localgid Regards, Torsten P.S: Thanks to Ben for this help! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
