permissions to smbmount

[Yarka]

hi,
We have a server samba on our linux. We have 4 user : root , ap1, ap2, ap3.
When I try to mount with root user, then it is correct.
The problem is when it is run with normal users (ap1, ap2). When I try to mount like that i got the error:
smbmnt must be installed suid root for direct user mounts (100,100)
smbmnt failed: 1

How can we mount with different users no root?
We don't know how we must change smb.conf file or sudoers file, for we can give permissions to ap1 and ap2 users or if we must change other things.

Have you tried this (as root) ?
chmod u+s /usr/bin/smbmnt

Hope This Helps, PH.

I'd try this (as root):
chmod u+s /usr/bin/smbmnt /usr/bin/smbmount /bin/mount
