[Gllug] Permissions on SMB mounts

Want to set up a scratch directory that allows us all at home to share
files (3 clients + 1 server)

Can successfully mount the smb directory (kids' box uses windows). But
it only mounts on the nix boxes as 755 which rather defeats the object.

Original permission of /mnt/smb was 777 and mounted share is 777 on
server.

Have tried putting umask=0000 in  fstab. Have this problem with both
anonymous mounts and mounts using username and password.

Any fix?
