Oh, then I think it might be a good idea to write a tool which can check the 
tdb then.

With that tool, start by creating a test which sets dos mode with smbclient 
and verify it with the tool that it is correctly written. If we also store the 
owner and group of the file in that tdb, we could finally verify that 'force 
user' works correctly ...
