from `man mount`:
Mount options for smbfs
Just like nfs, the smb implementation expects a binary
argument (a struct smb_mount_data) to the mount system call. This
argument is constructed by smbmount(8) and the current version of
mount (2.9w) does not know anything about smb.
so I followed that to `man smbmount`:
uid=<arg>
sets the uid that will own all files on the mounted
filesystem. It may be specified as either a username or a numeric uid.
gid=<arg>
sets the gid that will own all files on the mounted
filesystem. It may be specified as either a groupname or a numeric gid.
so therefore:
sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=xxx,pasword=xxx,uid=iain,gid=niceppl //servername/sharename /mnt/share
