Create a group where all of your users must be added into. And have the share folder mapped with the group pemission. For example :
//serverpath/thesharedfolder /mnt/samba smbfs user,password=smbpassword,uid=1000 ,gid=1000,username=smbusername,auto 0 0 I believe there are more advanced and easier ways to do it.
