[Samba] [PATCH] smbfs: smbfs do not honor uid, gid, file_mode and dir_mode supplied by user mount

[Haroldo Gamal]

Hi,

This patch fixes "Samba Bugzilla Bug 999". The last version (2.6.8.1) of 
smbfs kernel module do not honor uid, gid, file_mode and dir_mode 
supplied by user during mount. This bug is also logged as "Kernel Bug 
Tracker Bug 3330".  I think this stuff is related to the "unix 
extensions".  This patch offers to the client side the opportunity to 
decide to use or not those extensions.  To fully work, some 
modifications are needed to samba smbmount.c and smbmnt.c files. Those 
patches are available at  Samba and Kernel Bug Tracker pages (Bug 999). 
After those patches, if the user do not supply any of the parameters 
above, the uid, gid, file_mode and dir_mode on the server will be used 
by the client.

I have  submitted this before, but I've got no answer. This is the last 
time. If it have no value, please send me a note.

Thank you in advance,

Haroldo Gamal
