The key was to disallow the local machine from setting uid/gid on the server, and allow samba to do this via the rules in the smb.conf.
We always set the smb.conf to force some things: [datashares] comment = Company Files path = /raid/....... force group = +datashare read only = No create mask = 0660 force create mode = 0660 security mask = 0770 directory mask = 0770 force directory mode = 0770 directory security mask = 0770
It seems that you have sort of focused on group permissions rather than user permissions. I suspect that this is the only approach for CIFS. Then, all users that should share a volume are a member of that volume's group. You could, I guess, have a group for each share.
