don't make the samba user setup with the admin users = parameter.

if the apps are Read only then just make it so the samba user has write
powers and no one else does.

admin users do all accesses as root. so it kinda is dangerous to setup an
admin user.
just setup a user w/write access and disable everyone else's write access


like this

[95apps]
path = /some/where/95apps
writeable = yes
write list = samba
read list = (users whom you wish to read this share)

or something like that.
