Best practice for Samba file permissions: To use nobody.nogroup or not? - Ask Ubuntu


i have been running samba file server multiple shares, multiple users , different samba-level permissions (i.e. write list, read list). way set on file system change ownership of shared files , directories nobody.nogroup. in smb.conf, every 1 of samba shares, used

force user = nobody force group = nogroup  

this way, delegate control of permissions samba layer. it's not pretty how got work in ubuntu 12.04. have upgraded ubuntu 16.04 , re-visited samba configuration. using nobody.nogroup @ filesystem level seems defeat purpose of filesystem security. wondering best practice filesystem-level permissioning in setup.
