Turns out you need to specify a uid= and a gid= of a user:group who make the 
changes. Without these, the above, which I had, mount read only.

On a related issue, if I put the line is fstab, can I mix Linux-ish things, 
like user,noauto with the samba-ish things like username=derek and expect 
them to work correctly?
