I am using cifs to mount to my Windows box.  I am executing the 
following command in /etc/rc.local (FC6) to mount the share:  mount -t 
cifs -o username=<username>,password=<password> //192.168.1.101/music 
/mnt/music.  I don't see any explicit permissions in the mount command 
(obviously), and the default permissions on the Windows share are that 
"Everyone" has Read access.

When I ran "file *.mp3", I got the following message for each file: 

01 I Remember Now.mp3:          setgid sticky Audio file with ID3 
version 23.0 tag, MP3 encoding
02 Anarchy-X.mp3:               setgid sticky Audio file with ID3 
version 23.0 tag, MP3 encoding
03 Revolution Calling.mp3:      setgid sticky Audio file with ID3 
version 23.0 tag, MP3 encoding
04 Operation- Mindcrime.mp3:    setgid sticky Audio file with ID3

05 Speak.mp3:                   setgid sticky Audio file with ID3

13 Waiting for 22.mp3:          setgid sticky Audio file with ID3 
version 23.0 tag, MP3 encoding
14 My Empty Room.mp3:           setgid sticky Audio file with ID3 
version 23.0 tag, MP3 encoding
15 Eyes of a Stranger.mp3:      setgid sticky Audio file with ID3 
version 23.0 tag, MP3 encoding

Do I have to adjust some permissions in the mount command for CIFS, or 
change the permissions on the Windows share to include Write access 
too?  I was a little confused with the writeup you sent me in regards to 
what their proposed workaround actually was.

Thanks,
Harry
