Hi.
I think you just can ignore the user and group if you use ACL to define
authorithy.
By having present ACL defines for directories(or files) you tell Linux to use 
ACL for access control only.
And ignore user and group.

Subject: Re: Samba security again

Hi Mark,

That was our first idea too but we were not able to get the correct
setup for our goal. How should we setup the share config in a way that
we get the correct write authorization?

When we do not specify anything in the share a file gets
username:defaultgroup. So for instance berry:users. But we'd want the
files to get a permission based on the directory it is created in. So
directory linux should get something like user:linux.

When using forcegroup we do get the group right but the parameter in the
share is then used for all files in all (sub)directories. So share MFPL
would then get group MFPL instead of vmvse or linux.

When using inherit group or inherit permission it still is not the way
we exepected it. Even more so, inherit group looks like to be inherit
user; the file is then created as root:users (root is owner for the
directory, users is my default group).

Regards, Berry.
