Try this:
smbmount //nbgwu5/upload /home/darose/mnt/nbgwu5 -o
rw,username=crosen,password=*****,workgroup=demo,uid=your_unix_username,gid=
your_unix_group

Hmmmm.  Didn't make a difference.

I did learn something new about the situation though:

I'm able to read and write from the SMB mounted directory as root, but not
as 
any other user.  Obviously I'd like to be able to access this as a regular 
user, so I don't have to go root every time I want to write a file to the 
share dir.

Any other suggestions?


Thanks,

DR
