There are (at least) two solutions to this problem:

1) Use version control on your files, like cvs or git :)
2) You should be able to map different user IDs using NFS.  The way it 
used to be done was to create a map file with the user/group ID 
equivalents, and then tell the nfs server to use those mappings based on 
the host ID.  I messed with this on 9.04 recently, and it didn't work 
the first time.  I didn't try a second time, so ymmv :)

I don't know for sure, but I bet that a Samba share can't emulate 
UNIX-style permissions, so you probably end up with everything being 
executable and all uppercase or something.
