Hi again,

        I updated Samba on both client and server to 3.0.28a. Client is 
openSuSE 10.2. Server is Debian Lenny.  I noticed that newly created file's
ownership will be changed to username that is used when mounting CIFS volume 
(under -o username=xxx,password=xxx) and the permission will be
changed to what specified under samba configuration.
Anyone who can log into the client can see the contents of fstab (and therefore your passwords), consider using a credentials file chmod'ed to 600.

 Here's my config

[global]
<snip>
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_KEEPALIVE SO_RCVBUF=8192 
SO_SNDBUF=8192
Unless you have a good reason to be messing with the buffer sizes, don't. Modern OS's have perfectly good defaults, don't cripple them by using custom settings that were good 5 (10?) years ago.

[testvolume1]
        comment = CIFS Mount
        path = /mnt/disk1
        valid users = @users
        admin users = @root
        write list = @users
        read only = No
        hosts allow = 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
This is OK-ish. The write list is pointless since the share is not read only. Do you really need the admin users setting? I'm sure there are situations where it is required, but I have never seen one personally and I can think of situations where it would cause problems.

All in all, there doesn't seem to be too much wrong with this setup.

Now for every file created by users logged into that machine, the ownership is 
changed to machine1 automatically. Is there any way to solve
this problem? Thank you very much!

Can you send the output of "mount" (with the password removed if you so wish)?
