LPI Exam 300-100 Topic 5 Question 56 Discussion

Actual exam question for LPI's 300-100 exam

Question #: 56
Topic #: 5

After adding a remote CIFS share to /etc/fstab, the share is mounted to the correct location in the file system. There, all files belong to the user and group root and are not readable or writable by any other users on the system. What should be done in order to permit distinct local user access to the mounted files?

AThe option root squash = yes should be added to the share in the Samba server's smb.conf to allow full access by the client.

BThe mount.cifs options uid, gid, file_mode and dir_mode should be used to specify the ownership and permissions of the mount.

CThe user should be added to the local user group smbusers, as mount.cifs by default restricts access to all CIFS mounts to member of this group in addition to the root account.

DThe mount.cifs command should always be executed by user who will use the mount afterwards. The user should be granted the required permission in /etc/sudoers.
