In your smb.conf file, add the following to the [sharename] section:
force user = apache
force create mode = 0774
This should ensure that all files you dump in via samba are always owned
by apache with the proper permissions. I do this on servers that never
see the internet. If this is insecure, please enlighten me as said
servers may one day be made visible to the outside world...
Ak.
