AHH! That looks like it! We may be able to work around the user issue as
long as we can force the group.
Much appreciated!!

RE: Force directory mode, uid, gid, & mask
You can force group by using CIFS share -forcegroup option. You also can
indirectly control file creation mode by using CIFS share -umask and/or
-dir_umask ,-file_umask options. It is opposite to SAMBA - i.e. to set
default filemode to 644 you apparently need set -file_umask=133
I do not know of any way to force user of newly created files.
Also keep in mind that this applies only to files created via CIFS share.
Files created by NFS clients will get whatever Unix client specify.

I failed to mention that all exports are currently from unix security
styled qtrees. Switching to ntfs is an option.
