mount -t cifs ... -o username=... file_mode=0777 ignored

Hi,

options gid=users,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 are ignored in SL 6.10:
root@arthur:/home/pc41# /bin/mount -t cifs  //10.0.0.41/public 
/home/pc41/usb-stick -o 
username=xxx,password=xxx,gid=users,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777
root@arthur:/home/pc41# ls usb-stick/ -l
insgesamt 0
drwxr-xr-x 3 root users 0 17. Aug 13:39 DCIM

You see: "root users" and users can't write, mode 777 is ignored. With 
old Suse-server worked for 5 years.
