    Try adding this line to your /etc/fstab file:
    Code:
    //pmde1505/receive /mnt/pmde1505/receive cifs username=*****,password=*****,iocharset=utf8,uid=1000,gid=1000,nounix,file_mode=0555,dir_mode=0555
    and see if that improves things.

    Jammed schedule - may take up to a couple days for me to get this done.

    Will update when completed. Thanks a bunch for your assistance.

    Re: Mount samba shares with utf8 encoding using cifs

    Hi,

    I followed all the instructions on the first 2 pages, and I COULD get vim to edit the necessary files on the mounted share. However, and this was frustrating, I could not get Kate or Komodo Editor to edit and save the files - the error was along the lines of no such file or directory.

    I finally found a workaround/solution:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...28/comments/50

    I was using a Linux box to access a Smb connection on a linux box. I could have used nfsmount, but I have certain restrictions and using CIFS was the fastest and best solution. Once I turned off DFS on the samba server, all was well.

    Not sure if this has already been noted somewhere in this long post, but I hope it helps someone.

    Experiment results :

    did umount.cifs to unmount the share
    did mount to get list of mounts and confirm that share was unmounted
    modified fstab as described
    did sudo mount -a to reload fstab
    did mount and ls -l /mnt/pmde1505 ... to confirm share was remounted
    all files and directories had read and execute permissions and were owned by me as before, mount shows the share as
    //pmde1505/receive on /mnt/pmde1505/receive type cifs (rw,mand)

    tried to cp an exe file and got same result as before - could not open the file for reading Permission denied.

    This is kinda curious. I feel like I read somewhere about a bug having these properties but I'm not sure and I can't find a reference - I'll keep looking.

    Just for testing, try changing the file_mode and dir_mode to 777.

    Test complete. Results unchanged. There must be something simple I'm overlooking.

    I'm yet another person having similar problems.
    I just went through the whole set of instructions, and am now stuck with the "mount error(13): Permission denied" problem.
    I'm trying to mount a share from a Buffalo Terastation.

    It (of course) works just fine in the GUI File Browser, but I really need to be able to access it from some command line programs.

    The only thing left I can think of then is server side. Perhaps a firewall or anti-virus is interfering?

    Otherwise, you may want to open a bug.

    There is a fix for this problem listed in the troubleshooting section.

    Already tried adding the "nounix" option.
    Didn't help.

    Couldn't find any mention of the permission denied problem in the referenced thread either.

    Sorry, the reference thread was in the wrong section. I just moved it.

    Try the fix for "Files owned by root."
