[LUNI] Mounting NFS drive as User

Hi Luni,
I've been trying find an answer for this on google and in the
available nfs documentation, but am coming up empty so far.  I'm
trying to share a drive from my intel-built raid nas
(http://www.intel.com/design/servers/storage/ss4000-E/index.htm) on my
local network using both NFS (for my htpc and workstation running
debian) and CIFS (for my wife's laptop running WinXP).

So far I've gotten CIFS to work on the winxp machine, and NFS to work
for root users on the linux boxes, but I'm having trouble getting
regular users access to the drive on the linux boxes.  Here is the
appropriate entry in my fstab file:

192.168.1.15:/nas/NASDisk-00002/pool /mnt/intelbox nfs
user,rw,rsize=4096,wsize=4096,hard,intr,async,nodev,nosuid 0 0

Again, the drive mounts under NFS, but only the root user can access it.

I've already tried chmodding the drive once mounted to allow for
regular user access, but this screws up the permissions on the WinXP
side... Any ideas?

Thanks,
