How to get LinNeighborhood working?

[dare2dreamer]

The bug seems to revolve around ownership info. In my case, I use a user
on my fileserver to own my media (mp3s in this case, via musicpd) called
mpd. User MPD owns the files in question, and the samba share is set up
like so:


Code:
--------------------
    
  [mp3]
  comment = ECHO Music Share
  path = /mnt/media/mp3
  write list = dare2dreamer
  force user = mpd
  force group = mpd
  guest ok = Yes
  
--------------------


This, on other systems, will allow me to mount the share as user
dare2dreamer, and samba takes care of sorting out the permissions on
the backend.

In the case of ubuntu and smbfs, it shows up as user postfix and group
messagebus, which are what is currently sitting on the UID/GID that
matches up to the other box's UID/GID for user mpd. I'm sure I can add
a user to my ubuntu install and move around the UID's to match, but it
seems like a really inelegant solution to a problem that only exists on
one machine.

Hope this helps us both. :-)
