CIFS support in xsmbrowser or LinNeighborhood?
I'm trying to mount Samba shares hosted on a Buffalo LinkStation as a non-root user. I've tried using both xsmbrowser and LinNeighborhood, but both seem to limit file sizes to 2GB, which I understand is a limitation of SMB vs. CIFS. Is there a way to enable CIFS support with these tools? I know I could do it if I created the mount as root and put it in fstab, but I want users to be able to mount private shares. For the record, I've installed: samba/testing uptodate 3.0.20b-2 xsmbrowser/testing uptodate 3.4.0-12 linneighborhood/stable uptodate 0.6.5-3.1 smbfs/testing uptodate 3.0.20b-2 on kernel 2.6.14-1-686. Any help or pointers are deeply appreciated. -- Re-Interpreting Historic Miracles with SED #141: %s/water/wine/g -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

If you put an suid-bit on mount.cifs any user can use mount.cifs to mount the samba shares they are allowed to (alas, there is no unmount.cifs). But I don't know, if it will work your tools. At least it works at the command prompt. Shade and sweet water!
