"Sticky" bit with samba, is it possible?

Thnx so far, but there is one problem still.

The Sticky bit is set now but when I make a new file (from windows) the rwx
are:

rwxrw----

It should be: rwxr-----

This is the smb.conf:

[Public]
comment = Everybody can make directories and files in this directory
path = /samba/public
public = no
read only = no
browseable = yes
inherit permissions = yes
force create mask = 0750
force directory mask = 1770
force group = users


What is wrong?

for your aim you only need the stick-bit on the directory with the
files you want in it. On a file the sticky-bit means "leave the
executable in memory after usage"

You mean new directores are not created with the sticky-bit. But if
you set it manualy, files in the directory can only be deleted by the
owner?

try what happens it you set "inherit permissions" in smb.conf to yes.
The sgid-bit is only respected with this (since 2.0.7)
