I have looked at a LOT of forum posts and other sites trying to solve this problem but I have had no luck. I've seen the following:

I have an entry in my fstab that lets root mount a samba share on a Windows Server 2003 machine and gives users full read/write access to the share. The fstab entry looks like:
Code:
//servername.net/share /mnt/share cifs rw,user,umask=000,username=someuser,noauto,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
However, when a normal user tries to mount the share they get one of two errors:
1. If I have /sbin/mount.cifs set to 777
Code:
mount error(1): Operation not permitted
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs)
2. If I have /sbin/mount.cifs set to +s
Code:
mount error: permission denied or not superuser and mount.cifs not installed SUID
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I would go about getting a user able to mount this samba share?
