Bug Description
When mounting a CIFS share from a server that has Linux Extensions enabled, the uid and gid options are not supported on Ubuntu. This can be achieved by putting "1" into /proc/fs/
See http://
Note: the original reporter indicated the bug was in package 'samba-client'; however, that package was not published in Ubuntu.

I am using Edgy, and /proc/fs/ cifs/LinuxExten sionsEnabled was already set to 1 with no intervention from me. Still, I don't have permissions to write to a cifs share, even after using the uid and gid options. I don't have this problem when using smbfs instead of cifs to mount the samba share.
