[IGNORE] Samba permissions not working

[Jack Yaz]

Samba is being awkward and not respecting options selected in ui. I've noticed files such as

user_var.txt in the folder, with contents like the below. What octet is r/w?

*=000
*entware=300

Permission levels on folders themselves, they were only writeable by owner. Changed it to allow group/others, not sure which did it noe, but one did!
