anyone had this problem before?  in my fstab i have this:

  //jaysdell/mp3  /mnt/jay  smbfs  user,rw,guest,uid=500  0 0

but at boot time it won't mount... even though all my nfs shares work just 
fine.

so as a regular user, i tried this:

  (~) $ mount /mnt/jay/
  INFO: Debug class all level = 2   (pid 3668 from pid 3668)
  added interface ip=192.168.1.107 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
  cannot mount on /mnt/jay: Operation not permitted
  smbmnt failed: 1

odd...  so i tried this:

  (~) $ mount -t smbfs //jaysdell/mp3 /mnt/jay/
  mount: only root can do that

so i just su'd to root and did this:

  (~) # mount /mnt/jay/
  INFO: Debug class all level = 2   (pid 3771 from pid 3771)
  added interface ip=192.168.1.107 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0

and "poof!" it works...  so my question is: (a) why can't i mount the share as 
a regular user?  and (b) if root can do it, why won't it do it at boot time?

here's what it says in /var/log/samba/jaysdell.log:

  [2003/06/10 14:35:54, 1] smbd/password.c:pass_check_smb(545)

thanks for any help you people can provide...  this isn't a crucial issue, but 
it is rather annoying, and i keep feeling like i'm missing an important part 
of the workings of my os here...
