Hi Andrew, Since we don't parse CIFS ACLs yet, the ownership and perms are all fictional. By default, the perms on the root directory are the same as the perms on the underlying directory. We support controls to override this - see mount_smbfs(1M) for the 'dirperms' and 'fileperms' options. You'd use these in the map the same way you're using uid and gid now. The writes will be done by the user which authenticated the connection at mount time, so different Unix users who create files will see that they're owned by the same user on the CIFS server.
