In fact, the way SAMBA handles this problem is quite clever. It lets you
decide for each share the UID and GID of any created file and directory,
and to force the permissions as well. However, I admit that the config
file becomes much more complicated...
Is there any reason why this could pose a problem with Netatalk ?
