Are you sure the windows share is writable when you are not authenticated
to citserver?  If you have a username and password on that machine you
might add username=xxx,password=yyy to the options above and see does it
make a difference.

-- of course....this is a public shared folder. it is in clarkconnect server, 
and i shared it as windows network and file sharing. the palce actually in /home/shared
and previously i have sent the smb.conf of that server right ?
no username, no password, no problem for windows users, but for linux....problem 
in using firefox, gimp ( so far that i found out )
previously.....i go to places - connect to server - windows shared - server : citserver - folder : shared
but firefox and gimp can't save to this.
i have added with username and password.....even i used "defaults" value and changed the gid and or uid
still......the same

thanks so much
~E~
