Is it possible to mount an ext2 drive in fstab as a different user than 
root? uid=myuser doesn't work as it does with vfat.

I'm trying to set up samba and share 3 large drives to windows machines 
on my local network and I keep getting the permission denied error. I 
believe it is because the owner and group are both root on the drive 
with 700 permissions.

I've been trying to figure this out all day. I've read the fstab and 
mount man pages as well as samba smb.conf docs without success. If its 
not possible to mount it with anyone other than root then that is fine 
if I can make it so samba will share the thing out with write 
permissions to all users. I've gotten the vfat drives to share in samba 
and be writeable using a guest account only, but not a user (other than 
setting the guest account in samba equal to that user)
