Samba and inherited permissions?



 I have a samba server (CentOS) acting as a domain controller and several 
Win XP workstations connected to the domain. 

When a user creates a file or folder in a shared folder on the central 
file server, that object is read-only to everyone else.    I am not using 
ldap - but may do so at some point in the future. 

Does samba have the ability to place people into a group, such that all 
objects created in the shared space are openly available 
(read/write/execute) to all users? At present, I need to log in and change 
permissions via sudo. 

Thus far, I've google searching has only yielded a domain admin group, but 
I don't want to give users admin rights - only shared access. 

Thanks. 

Scott
