We have a Windows NT server with Microsoft's Services for Unix installed. It
was apparently easy to setup on the Windows side, but a Unix user had a lot
of trouble mounting it and having read/write permissions on it. The Windows
side didn't change and somehow the user resolved their end and is able to
mount it and have read/write access. We tried to setup a Fedora Core3 to
mount this same share and it mounts and provides read-only access. We're not
completely sure the issue lies on the Linux/Unix side, but we've set it all
up to mirror the working Unix setup. No luck though. Graphically, the mount
is showing full permissions, but access is denied when writing, deleting,
etc.

So, we also have a Windows 2003 server and enabled a NFS share and services
on it. We have the same read-only problem with both the Unix and Linux
client. We've set it on the Windows said to complete unrestricted access,
but still no good.

We have the same usernames and password in each environment, have done user
name mapping, etc, etc

Can anyone offer any ideas on this?
