Unable to run fs-cifs unless I'm root  
I'm having problems running fs-cifs unless I'm logged in as "root". If I'm "root" then launching fs-cifs works fine and 
I can attach to my PC. If I create a user account and I run fs-cifs using non-root credentials get the following error:

$ fs-cifs
Unable to register for mount requests. Operation not permitted

I added my account to all the same groups that root is a member of:

$id
uid=100(gschmott) gid=4(adm) groups=0(root),1(bin),2(daemon),3(sys),4(adm),5(tty)

Still no luck. It's probably a permissions issue but I'm struggling to figure out how to fix it. Can anyone offer some 
suggestions?

Thanks . . .
