xebialabs/overthere — Issue #27: Allow CIFS connections using non-adminstrative users

The current documentation for CIFS connections requires the connecting user to be a member of the Administrators group. This is only required since the implementation copies to remote locations using the administrative x$ shares.

It would be very beneficial if a less privileged user could be used for access. This may be possible e.g. by mapping making the temporary directory used by Overthere accessible via a "normal" share, and copying the files to the target locations from this temporary location.
