Interestingly, I set up a basic copy of your share, with a /rosanne directory with the same permissions/context. initially I had some authentication problems, but after mapping a known working drive mabaged to connect and write successfully.

Do you get any messages in /var/log/samba/smbd.log or any of the other log files in that directory that relate to this issue?

Try the setenforce 0 trick again to rule out SELinux for sure

Well it's down to one line in the smb.conf file now! I have this narrowed down to this line:

; force group = rmusel

When commented access is good, when not commented the above mentioned errors are generated. I even tested the following with the same error:

force group = @rmusel

Any thoughts on this? Do I even really need this line?

Not sure if this will help any or not, here's the last chunk of my smbd.log file:

Probably not is the answer. Try without it, write a file and see who the owner/group is (with ls -l)

-rwxrw-r-- 1 rmusel rmusel 0 Jun 16 20:25 New Text Document.txt

Looks like this is completely resolves! Thank you soooo much for all the help.
