Very Computer

The server is suse70server, the share is SuSE70-Public.

The smb.conf area for [SuSE70-Public] has writeable=yes and create
mask=777

On the client, I'm mounting the share using

mount -t smbfs -o username=usernamd,password=password
//suse70server/SuSE70-Public /home/mark/network

I do get the mount, but only as a read only.

I've tried adding an additional -o rw command, it doesn't help.

I've looked at the mount command faq and in several texts and it looks
like I'm doing this correctly.

What am I missing?
