Darren / Neil >>> Thanks for your suggestions. I guess I'm right in
thinking I should edit the line in /etc/fstab to
//serverIP/public /media/nas cifs
credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,uid=1000,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777
0 0
Sadly, this doesn't solve the problem: still when I make a test
directory in Nautilus and drag it from /home to /media/nas I lose write
permission for it - it appears with a lock symbol on it; and I get a
permissions error when I try to delete it. I can, however, drag files
to the directory and open them. The directory appears to have
permissions rwx r-x r-x.
I'm afraid my understanding of this is at the level of painting by
numbers (i.e. cutting and pasting from HowTos with little conception of
what's going on). So rational troubleshooting is a bit out of the
question! I'll do some more searches. But if you - or anyone - have
any more suggestions, I'd be grateful.
Is it worth asking about this on Launchpad, or is that not the right
place?
