I've tried it to sort di /eda/utit/PAI, but it doesn't works:
this is the smb.conf section:

[utit]
     comment = Directory Scambio Pc Utit
     path = /eda/utit
     create mask = 0777
     writable = yes
     vfs objects = dirsort
;    dos filetime resolution = yes
;    fake directory create times = yes
;    sync always = yes
     ;oplocks = no
     ;write cache size = 0
     ;level2 oplocks = no
[PAI]
     comment = Directory Scambio Pc Utit
     path = /eda/utit/PAI
     create mask = 0777
     writable = yes
     vfs objects = dirsort
;    dos filetime resolution = yes
;    fake directory create times = yes
;    sync always = yes
     ;oplocks = no
     ;write cache size = 0
     ;level2 oplocks = no
