I suggest you have a look at the security mask, directory security mask,
create mask, directory mask, as well as the various force () mode smb.conf
parameters.  Depending on your system you may have a non-standard default
for one of these, and Linux distribution smb.conf-defaults often set the
mask on the share level...
