It is helping with a migration from Linux. However, I'm hoping that you may be able to clarify a problem we are seeing with fstab entries, related to permissions. It seems that the first person to cause the automount of a server, then takes ownership 0700, regardless of any settings. What we are hoping for is to be able to mount the server volume with 0770. Otherwise we run the risk of our server processes not being able to write to the mounts as needed, should a different user happen to trigger the mount after a timeout. I've also sent a message to Apple Enterprise Support, but last time I inquired with them, they didn't want to get involved with smb/cifs mounts (only AFP and NFS).
