[Samba] All read and write

At first, can you read/write files into the share without no
authentication from Windows *manually*? 

Their suggestion is to archive that, not to take ownership of a file.

According to your description, 

-----
A program I used in windows is able to create folders and files but
unable to have ownership of the folder ... once the folder is created,
it is lock.
-----

it seems that what you want is not to set all read/write share,
instead you have to set that your Windows program can take ownership
of a file on Samba share.

If you want to take ownership to myself, you need that 

(1) set "dos filemode = yes" and set the file writeable.

or 

(2) have SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege user rights

If you want to set ownership to any user, you need that

(1) access as root (uid = 0)

or 

(2) have SeRestorePrivilege user rights

I recommend that at first you try to take ownership a file manually.

And I think that these features are probably not tested with "security =
share", so you had better set "security = user" and proper settings.
