The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the
upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would
appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel.
There are one of two ways you should be able to test:

The 18 month support period for Edgy Eft 6.10 has reached it's end of
life. As a result, we are closing the linux-source-2.6.17 Edgy Eft

Hardy Heron 8.04 was recently released. It would be helpful if you

Ante, yes this is what I had in mind. I am not able to make the uid or
gid options to work in Ubuntu 7.04. This problem is documented in the
man page, but there doesn't appear to be a solution for it.

Well, there is solution :) It's fixed in Gutsy. I'll try isolating diff

The man page says that uid= and gid= are ignored by the cifs driver when
connecting to a server that supports unix permissions. When you were

Testing this on Gutsy:
$ cat /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled
1
$ sudo mount -t cifs //localhost/test /mnt/ -o
username=ivoks,uid=nobody,gid=nogroup
$ ls -dl /mnt/
drwxr-xr-x 2 nobody nogroup 0 2007-08-04 17:03 /mnt/
$ sudo umount /mnt/
$ sudo mount -t cifs //localhost/test /mnt/ -o
While the above 'solution' does allow me to write to the share, it of
course disallows distinctly UNIX things like symlinks. From what I can
see, there is no way to read/write these things without having the same
UID/GID as the owner on the server. This drastically limits the utility
of CIFS, and
I am using Edgy, and /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled was already
set to 1 with no intervention from me. Still, I don't have permissions
to write to a cifs share, even after using the uid and gid options. I
don't have this problem when using smbfs instead of cifs to mount the
samba share.

Contrarily (unless I'm misinterpreting the original report), I can get
the uid and gid options to be properly recognised by putting 0 (not 1)
into /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled.
