[Bug 404623] [NEW] Samba shares created by smbclient are read-only

[Scaine]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

Full Background :
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7677294#post7677294

In Karmic, Alpha 2 and Alpha 3, when a share is created using the
smbclient command (such as AutoFS uses), the share is created read-only.
The same configuration on Jaunty results correctly in a read-write
share.

Having created the share, it's possible to "sudo nautilus" and
read/write to the share in question.

Has a default changed in smbclient which now needs to be set explicitly
when using it to mount cifs shares?
