Also the way I have so far "fixed" hopefully is to use stickied users 
and also using umask speaking to friend says thats teh only way 
including using smb.conf to enforce it.

Also my other errors were from the smbmount trying umask did not work 
which I found out after that same friend pointed out that umask doesn't 
work under smbmount but rather use fmask and dmask.

I was like duh.

If anyone else has had these issues I hope thats helped if not reply to 
me and I'll tell you what I did to clear up the mud lol.

Thanks to everyone that helped btw.
