Er...make that second line "force create mode = 0770".  Typing too 
doggone fast....

By the way, is there any reason you want to make user files executable 
by default?  I can see directories, but why files?  The "force create 
mode" that I use is 0660, for this reason.  Directories of course remain 
0770 because of the first line.
