Check out the smb.conf parameters 'read list=' & 'write list=' with which you can assign users and groups these permissions to shares.

We've have a few shared folders that we'd like for some GROUPS to have read/write access and other GROUPS to have only read access. I cannot figure out how to do this because Linux/Unix seems to have the limitation that a file can only be owned by one user and one group, and the permissions are only applicable to the owner (user and group). Is there a way to assign more than one group to a file, and make it so the different groups have different permissions (Like NDS and Microsoft do)? If not, how do people get around this? Thanks for any help.
