Here's how I used to achieve that type of scenario on CentOS 4:
[Staff]
comment = Staff Share
path = /shares/staff
writeable = yes
valid users = +staff
force group = staff
force create mode = 0660
force directory mode = 0770

I know - that's where I started - works fine for directories, but not
for files. I can't fathom it out.

Did you use "force create mode" as opposed to "create mode" in your
original message?
I wonder if it's a *nix file permission thing. Maybe you need to
manually (re)set all file ownerships to spendtrak:spendtrak and take it
from there.

indeed and 'force group' is pointless.
chmod g+s /home/spendtrak
gets it done, neatly, cleanly and the recommended method
