Ok, so far so good. What you missed out :

"when we> create a file in the share"

When *who* created a file in the share. Create via Windows
or create via local Linux ?

You showed me the ACL on the share directory - great. What
are the ACLs on the created files you're trying to access ?

Where are the debug level 10 logs from smbd showing the
access failing ?

The information you've provided is a good start, but
still incomplete. Please create a new bug in bugzilla.samba.org
and I'll help you through the process of you getting me
what data I need in order to get it fixed.

This is detailed enough that we should stop spamming
the list with your specific problem.

Jeremy.
