	Have you tried LinNighborhood?

	Mount a CIFS/SMB filesystem is not much different from
a regular block device, the restrictions and security limitations
still applies, you can add a line to /etc/fstab to allow users to
mount it and specify the options.

	You can also use SUID approach or have it automounted on
boot or other software. And using uid,gid is supposed to work.
Can you show the command lines, permissions and errors? (Logs?)

	Kind regards,
