I'm running Slackware 10.1 with the latests SAMBA package 
samba-3.0.14a-i486-1.tgz.

Here is my share info

[data]
         comment = AP Data
         path = /home/data
         browseable = Yes
         read only = No

My directory permissions are
drwsrws---  15 stownshend prepress 488 2005-08-03 09:20 1--Active\ Jobs/

1--Active\ Jobs's path is /home/data/jobs/1--Active\ Jobs


(I am not "townshend") When I create a new folder in "1--Active\ Jobs" 
It gets these permissions

drwxr-sr-x  2 jgreene    prepress   48 2005-08-03 09:20 test/

Files are acting the same way.

Why is this happening?  Shouldn't the new folder be created with 
drwsrws---  ?  Do I have to start using the "force users/group" in the 
share info ?




  Regards.

In Christ,
