OK - you don't want the uid/gid options, they will mess up the permissions to start with. Are the uid/gids on the fileserver the same as on the box that you're connecting with? Becuase otherwise you need to do some interesting mappings, which might be tricky.
Oh, and re-enable the unix cifs extensions.
OK, so now I have (in /etc/fstab): //10.0.0.14/projects /smb/projects cifs credentials=/smb/.credentials,dir_mode=0775 0 0
After umount/mount the files now appear (from my desktop) to have ownership of uid 500/501/etc and gid of 60003, which tally with the user and group names on the fileserver.
However I now only have read access to the shared directories and files from my desktop.
Suggestions?
