[Samba] How to remove ability to delete files

[Mike Gallamore]

That doesn't seem to do what I need it to. I can't write files now,  
even though I'm a member of the group that owns the directory.

I have:

[project-mike]
path=/<path to share>/project-mike
browsable = yes
writable=yes
inherit permissions = yes

chown -R <someone else> project-mike
chmod -R 1750 project-mike
