saving changes over smb via kate and konqueror

When browsing a remote smb share using konqueror, I'm unable to save changes to files using kate. For instance, using konqueror I can open test.txt on smb://remotemachine via kate. Then


(1) If I modify test.txt, close kate, and choose to save changes, kate saves the modified file to localmachine. Nothing is changed or is requested to be changed on remotemachine.

(2) If I modify text.txt, and save changes without closing kate, I'm prompted with

File Was Modified on Disk - Kate

The file 'file:/var/tmp/kdecache-user/krun/7440.0.test.txt' was changed (deleted) on disk by another program!
What do you want to do?

Reload File; Ignore Changes; Cancel.


Again, test.txt on remotemachine remains unchanged.



I don't think this is a problem with file permissions, as I'm able to browse via konqueror, modify and save test.txt via gedit: first gedit saves changes locally to a temp file, then KIOExec notices there have been changes to the file and asks me if I want to upload them to the remote machine. I'm also able to browse smb://remotemachine via nautilus, use kate, and save changes to remotemachine directly without closing kate.

How do I modify files on an smb share using konqueror and kate?
I'm new to linux and am running centos.
