that's one way of solving it but, you can't do that especially if you have a lot of users updating the files on the server simultaneously with the ones downloading it. even you setup different folders with diff restrictions, user will still tend to work with files directly on write-enabled directories.

Why go to the trouble of converting the whole setup to FTP? If you made the SMB directories read-only, wouldn't that essentially force people to copy the files over to their local directories before working with them?
