Any way to apply ACLs automatically to new files?

Any way to apply ACLs automatically to new files?

I have some files in a shared (via samba) directory that need to have an
ACL entry giving a particular user write access to them. Another user
creates various excel/word docs in this directory and the user who the
ACL entry is for has to edit them. This all works fine however when new
files are created they do not automatically have the ACL entry on them.

Is there someway to have all files created in a directory inherit ACL
entries from that directory? Something that works in a similar way to
setting groupid on a directory for the normal Linux permissions.
Alternatively there wouldn't happen to be some kind of umask-like thing
that acts on ACLs would there?

Thanks
