Is the machine that you are mounting on a windoze or a linux box??
If it is linux I have never seen this behaviour. What is in /etc/exports
on the nfs server? If it is a windoze box look at the uid, gid options to
smbmount. Smbmount does not seem to be able to read windoze uid and gid's
and have them show up correctly on linux. As a result you have to specify
the uid and gid as args to smbmount or it assumes root. I _think_ this will
be fixed in samba 3.0.
