Putting these lines solved that problem for me:
force directory mode = 700
force directory security mode = 700
force create mode = 500
force security mode = 500
For some reason it seems Win2000 would change the permission on some directory, this doesn't
happen on NT. Also it seems "directory" mode does not always work with directory, but you
need to use the "file" settings (as you can see above).
All this with Samba 2.2.0 on FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE.
