What would it mean that the permissions and ownerships are "correct"? If I log into the server and check, permissions on typical shared files is 664 user=dosnet group=devel. (dosnet is uid 112, devel is gid 101) Nobody else in the building has any trouble accessing these shares. My own Win32 box has no trouble. And as I said, if I browse the network drives with Nautilus, I can write to the files just fine. The problem is when I try to use my fstab-defined mount. I can create files but not overwrite or update them. A colleague using FC4 and virtually the same fstab entry as mine also has no trouble. (I'm failing with FC6.)
