No problems here. Client is a openSuSE 10.3 laptop. Server is SuSE Linux
10.0. The 10.3 cifs mounts are:
//nemesis/samba on /mnt/nemesis type cifs (rw,mand)
//nemesis/david on /mnt/nemesis-david type cifs (rw,mand)
//nemesis/config on /mnt/nemesis-cfg type cifs (rw,mand)
mounted with
#!/bin/bash
mount.cifs //nemesis/samba /mnt/nemesis/ -o
username=david,uid=1000,password=<mypass>,noperm
mount.cifs //nemesis/david /mnt/nemesis-david/ -o
username=david,uid=1000,password=<mypass>,noperm
mount.cifs //nemesis/config /mnt/nemesis-cfg/ -o
username=david,uid=1000,password=<mypass>,noperm
Samba 3.0.26a-0.1.82-1474-SUSE-SL10.0, the relevant portions of the

Here is a guess, try mounting your home share and see if you get the
same results. If you do, you still have problems. If not, then try to
include an "admin users" config on your other share naming you as the
admin user, restart samba and try again. This is just a guess.
