This is typically because the server and client can't work out username
mapping, so the client mounts the share with anonymous access, which is
read only.

Double, and triple check your username mappings...

I ran into something similar when I was playing with Windows Services
for Unix about a year ago. I did get it resolved, but honestly I don't
remember exactly what the solution was...While there are some kind of
cool things with WSU, there was no compelling reason ( for us ) to keep
using it.
But, I do remember there was some useful info in the newsgroup/forum.
I'd check the link here :

or see if your news server carries microsoft.public.servicesforunix.general
