samba - Oct 2005 - file permissions with samba shares

I am wondering if there is a way I can setup permission on 
directories in the directory that I have setup for samba shares so 
that no one can move or delete them. The problem I am having of late 
is that someone from within windows will move the directories around 
. I think they do it not knowing they are doing it. Its happened 
several times of late now. I have always found the missing directory 
nested into another directory in the samba shares. thanks for any 
info.   I am running just in workgroup setup with samba here no 
domain in the picture. Running suse linux 9.3 as the os on the server.

Denying write permission to the parent directory should prevent
someone from deleting or moving child directories.

If that won't work, you might instead try using the audit or
extd_audit vfs module to log directory moves and deletions.  Then you
could at least get after the responsible party.
