[Samba] Permission problems on Mac OS X

I know this might be half OT, but nontheless Samba is involved.
A customer of mine has two Macs with Mac OS X 10.5 and is sharing a
folder on one of them.
We'd like to avoid any permission problem, so I put the followinf in
smb.conf:
create mode=0777
force create mode=0777
directory mode=0777
force directory mode=0777
This is usually enough to achieve what I want, with other OSes.
However, when the second Mac (the client) creates a file with
OpenOffice.org, it will have mode 0755.
I was told this is a known problem, solvable with:
unix extensions=false.
I tried this too, but it doesn't seem to make any difference.
Any hint?
bye & Thanks
av.
