[linux-cifs-client] Some things change, and its not a good thing CIFS/SAMBA

[Paul Edgar]

Seems to have changed and not for the better.

I have a server that has a number of iso images.  I can mount the server 
directory with either cifs or nfs to a local directory.

However, when I attempt to mount -o loop /server/dir/file.iso /mnt I 
receive a permission denied.

So I end up copying the files with cp to the local machine and then 
mount -o loop the iso images.

Where did I go wrong, what changed and should I use Windows instead of 
FC5 for the server(a joke here about windows)?

Just want it to work like it used to.  No extra forgetful flags, etc....
