what do you mean when saying "with the user x inside this share"?

so why creating force user 0777?

best method would be creating a group which is supposed to have access 
to that specific folder, placing all users into that group and then 
setting the rights.for example create group test, make user x and user y 
be a member of the group. then:

setfacl -R -m g:test:rwx test

and if you want this group to have access to all files and folders 
createt later on in this folder then in adition

setfacl -d -R -m g:test:rwx test
