I have exaxctly the same problems. Due to this, my Ubuntu computer has started to be a nuisance, especially because downgrading back to 7.* is impossible, and gvfs cannot be disabled without removing Nautilus and the Ubuntu desktop. What a pain is hardy !
My configuration: 1 Ubuntu hardy destop, and a file server (90 MHz Pentium, 40Mb RAM) running another distro, with an old kernel 2.2.16-22. Using samba, no guest accounts, plain passwords, different UIDs for the same users on both machines. I have performed the commands below 515 cd /proc/fs 517 smbmount //his01/jhh ~/t5 519 cd cifs 521 sudo sh -c 'echo 1 > traceSMB ' 522 sudo sh -c 'echo 3 > cifsFYI ' 523 cd .. 524 smbumount ~/t5 ... 532 smbmount //his01/jhh ~/t5 533 cat ~/t5/pldirs.txt cat: /home/jhh/t5/pldirs.txt: Permission denied 534 smbumount ~/t5 After the smbmount: the directory structure looks fine. On this particular file: -rwxrwSrwx 1 jhh jhh 456 2008-04-12 14:26 pldirs.txt Attached the logging. I've taken out the raw data blocks (hex codes).
