As root do:
chmod 4755 /usr/bin/smbmount
That shoud do ya. I will set the sticky bit (SUID). You may also want to
do ( smbmnt and smbumount ) too.

No, please understand: when the mounting occurs, samba TOTAL ignores the
permissions on the mnt point, and resets them to what it pleases (right
now its root root 755 I think)
So it wouldn't even matter if it was world read/writable, samba woul still
change the permissions without asking.

Or perhaps, just making the directory owned by a GROUP that the user
is a member of would be enough? Especially if you made the di

Crazy Q., but will a tilde in the fstab file be expanded when a user mounts
a shared volume. If so you could try ~/mnt/place and make sure these
directories exist in your home directory. If this
you need to use the
fmask and dmask arguments in the fstab then
man smbmount
rtfm!

Also, even thought it's chgrp users samba mount it with it's own
permissions. (root and root) that's no good, because users nee to be able
to write to there too.

Have you tried it???
here's the line you're looking for:
//computer/share/mnt/place smb noauto,user 0 0
and while you are at it, make sure to do
chmod +s smbmnt
because it will probably complain if you don't
then, try:
mount /mnt/place
when /mnt/place is owned by root
That's completely useless: samba resets the permission's at mount time
(which is normal, and well known and tested)
Again, I don't really need any info except an example line.
Thanks,

I don't have an example, but I found that I had to
make the mount directory be owned by the user that wants to mount.

Hello,
I would like to see a real, living, working example of the line in
/etc/fstab that allows users (no, not just root, users) to mount a samba
share.
