Hi John.

I've struggled on/off with that sort of thing with Samba over the years.
The key for me was to ensure I was properly setting the permissions I
wanted on the actual filesystem and not to supply samba with anything.
In some cases I've used inherit permissions with some varying success.

Prob. not the answer you're hoping for but perhaps that could steer you
in the right direction.
