[Samba] Share Permission Issue

>         inherit permissions = yes

I've never used "inherit permissions" but I do have "inherit owner" set
and I don't have any problems with delete access.

I did have a problem like this when I first set Samba up, but I can't
remember what the solution was.  I *think* it had something to do with
Samba checking access instead of letting the filesystem do it.  When it
was changed to allow everything and rely on the filesystem to block
access everything worked fine.  Maybe that's what "public=yes" and
"writable=yes" are doing on that share...

Well a workaround would be to create a folder higher up as 0070, which
would mean only people of that group could see inside it.  Then it
doesn't really matter whether "others" can write into your real folders,
because they won't be able to get past the 0070 folder.

Maybe try a new version?
