This sounds like a GUID, UID mapping issue on the samba side, probably

(Suitably edited /etc/fstab and the smb.conf files might be of help here).


I think you're right. I can map to a windows machine's shares using cifs
and do anything I want. Any suggestions on fixing either of them? I've
tried the NFS side? I've looked at man and tried setting anongid and
anonuid, but it had no affect.

On my opensuse machine my uid is 1000. On the fedora machine my uid is
500.


There's your answer. Make the userids the same - that's standard procedure.
