changes, only on create.

<description>
<para>This parameter is the octal modes which are
used when converting DOS modes to UNIX modes when creating UNIX
directories.</para>
<para>When a directory is created, the necessary permissions are
calculated according to the mapping from DOS modes to UNIX permissions,
and the resulting UNIX mode is then bit-wise 'AND'ed with this
parameter. This parameter may be thought of as a bit-wise MASK for
the UNIX modes of a directory. Any bit <emphasis>not</emphasis> set
here will be removed from the modes set on a directory when it is
created.</para>
<para>The default value of this parameter removes the 'group'
and 'other' write bits from the UNIX mode, allowing only the
user who owns the directory to modify it.</para>
<para>Following this Samba will bit-wise 'OR' the UNIX mode
created from this parameter with the value of the <smbconfoption name="force directory mode"/> parameter.
This parameter is set to 000 by default (i.e. no extra mode bits are added).</para>
