To recap an earlier post, I'm using smbmount to mount a shared NT drive
on a RedHat5 box.  I need to give access to that drive to
non-superusers, but I can't get the file permissions to change.

I've been websurfing looking for more info on this, but the HOWTO only
covers smbclient (can't use it for reasons I won't bother with here),
and the page at //samba.anu.edu.au/samba/docs isn't very helpful either;
the command line they recommend produces an smbmount usage error on my
machine.

man smbmount says that -g and -u options will set the gid and uid of the
share, but on my machine they appear to have no effect.  Are they
switched off somewhere?

I've been looking at /etc/smb.conf, but that seems like it's mostly for
the server side.

Can someone please help?  I know that there must be someone else doing
this.
