Different user/group/permissions depending on which folder inside the Samba share a file is created in?

Is it possible to achieve different permissions on a newly created
file or folder depending on which folder inside a Samba share it is
created in?

Example:
Inside my share 'my_share' I have two folders:
private_folder
public_folder
Whenever a user creates a file inside 'public_folder' it is assigned
permissions 755, and whenever a file is created inside
'private_folder', the file gets 700.

Thanks,
--Ulf

The easiest should be, setup a share for each and use "force
mode" or alike, check the samba docs. (www.samba.org).

You could do this on the server if you use ACLs. I think most modern
distributions deal with these. You can set up an ACL on each directory
to specify a default user and group for new objects, though I've not
used that capability for quite some time.

See the manual page for setacl (?), or do a 'man -k acl'
