Problem with samba files ownership

I have a file-server running FC3, which is running in share mode (XP
home machines)

I can mount shares and write files except for one major problem - all
files are created with owner/group of nobody. This applies on bioth XP
and FC3 machines. The same problem applies whether using smb or cifs

This causes problems especially sending mail

Any idea what is wrong?

This is my relevant smb.conf
