[Samba] CIFS mount not applying setuids

[Ben Tyger]

That's not a the problem.  I know the extensions are compiled in and
running on the client machine.  I can see the ACLs over the cifs mount
from the client machine.  It only becomes an issue when I try to write
files over the cifs mount.  At that point it writes the wrong
uid/gid/perms.  It even overwrites with the wrong permissions on an
existing file with the correct permissions.  I even tried loading the
cifs modules on the server, but that made no difference.
