Hi,
Smbfs has problems with 32bit UID/GID's: when you do
'smbmount //some/share /mnt/samba -o uid=100000' the mountpoint UID (and
GID) wrap around at 65535.
The attached patch, along with samba recompile against fixed headers
apparently fixes it. This problem is present at least in all 2.4 kernels,
I haven't looked at 2.5.
