samba - Jan 2000 - Share permissions.

This is probably redundant, I couldn't find it in the archive, however.
With Winblows NT you can set shares up and allow a few people write access
and everyone read access.  I thought I had seen some docs on how to do that
with Samba, but I cannot find it now.  Does Samba allow for this complex
sharing, if so how?  . . .or am I going to have to get creative to do this?

I think there are 2 ways:
1) the unix way: set up group/other permissions as you want them. Samba
will respect unix permissions.
2) the unix/samba way: on the unix side relax permissions, then with
samba use "valid users", "read list", "write list"
to control
access/read/write permissions.
