Uh . . . are "force create mode" and "force directory mode" attributes in samba shares? Should my entry in samba look like this, then?:

[commons]
        comment = common files directory
        path = /mnt/commons
        force create mode = 777
        force directory mode = 777
        browseable = no
        writeable = yes
