I have smbclient-3.5.0-2, and did the suggested chmod +s on /sbin/mount.cifs, and /sbin/umount.cifs. The UID, and GID bits are now set on both, but I still can't mount shares from KDEmod3's smb4k (version 0.9.9). The error message says "/sbin/mount.cifs: permission denied: no match found for /home/djmons/smb4k/GATEWAY/djmons found in /etc/fstab". Now I don't believe I need an entry in /etc/fstab because on my Debian lenny install an entry is created in /etc/mtab when the share is mounted, and removed when unmounted. I can't revert back to my earlier version of smbclient (version 3.3.7-1), as I only recently installed the samba package (samba-3.5.0-2), and have no version to match my earlier version of the smbclient. are earlier package versions still kept somewhere? I do have more than one user set up on this Archlinux install. Would that have anything to do with why the chmod +s isn't doing it's job properly? idiotboy:x:1002: djmons:x:1003: Any suggestions as how to resolve the problem. Nigel.
