I don't have any problem either way, but my Samba setup may not be as secure as it should be. In particular from my workstation (OS 10.3, which only I use): My fstab has: //10.0.1.42/data /Z cifs user=gaf,pass=<mypass>,noperm,dir_mode=0777,rw 0 0 My CIFS server is a OpenSUSE 10.2 machine running Samba.
