with Linux amd64 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP i686 GNU/Linux and using the standard autofs and smbfs packages with the auto.smb enabled, shares are read only. I have to use places->network to be able to access the share rw. This does not seem to be the same problem cited as a duplicate bug.

The same problem exists with the i386 version but did not exist in the 9.04 release

adding mount options such as noperm or nounix or rw in auto.smb do not seem to make any difference.

access target is an NAS.

My understanding is that autofs uses mount.cifs and not smbclient to mount shares. It only uses smbclient to discover the shares.
