To me it sounds like a samba configuration issue.  Below is an extract  
(for that share that works for a client of mine:

         path = <full path to destination directory>
         valid users = @<group with access to this share>
         write list = @<group with access to this share>
         force user = <user with access to this share>
         force group = <group with access to this share>
         read only = No
         create mask = 0755
         directory mask = 07771

What happens here is that all files are owned by a user (with  
corresponding group) that is not a login user but one that is  
designated to own all files in the repository.  And all users who are  
allowed to "fiddle" are made members of this users' group.

HTH.
