Hi, I nearly have the same problem as David.
I have a share: [forall] path = /home/data/forall read only = yes write list = Administrator, @lehrer, @domadm, @verwaltung force user = root force group = staff create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 and rwxrwxr-x 9 root staff 4096 Jul 27 12:42 forall Neither Administrator nor any of the given group members are allowed to create any files in this path. But, when I remove the "force *" attributes everything works like expected... except the owner/group is not set, of course. I could be wrong, but this problems occurs firstly when I started to migrate to samba 3.0.4 (and now 3.0.5). In an environment with samba 3.0.2a (and below) this is working. The logs only tell me, that this is a read-only share and it is not possible to write to. I use Samba as PDC with LDAP backend also for posix accounts. David, did you solve your problem already?
