I'm running Samba 2.3x on a RH 8 box and sharing out my wife's and my home directories so that we can access them from our Windows computers.

I use the "Map Network Drive" tool under Windows to connect my share on the Linux box to my Windows computer as Drive Z:, so I can save files there and edit them on either my Windows computer or my Linux desktop computer.

Unfortunately, when I save files onto the share, they show up as being created and owned by username "nobody". The consequence of that is that files I create with Windows cannot be edited with Linux.

Is there a way to set it up so that files I create in Windows show up as owned by my regular Linux user account? I have tried selecting "connect as different user" when mapping the remote drive in Windows, but that doesn't help.
