Obviously your user and group should exist and be read/write accessible on the Windows share machine.
Command line solution:

mkdir <DestinationDir>
sudo mount -t cifs SERVER:/PathToShare <DestinationDir> -o rw,nosuid,nodev,uid=<USERNAME>,gid=<GROUPNAME>,user=<USERNAME>,domain=<WorkgroupOrDomain>

Title:
  Mounting CIFS folder i can only have READ ONLY access

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: likewise-open

  Situation is the following:
  - Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 beta 2 full updated
  - Likewise Open 5.4.0.42111-2
  - Domain with Windows 2003 Server Active directory
  - I join perfectly with DomainUser and Password
  - Mkdir "mountpoint" in the Home folder
  - I want to mount a samba share in a win2003 server File Server:

  mount -t cifs -o
  rw,username=DomainUser,password=Password,iocharset=utf8
  //Fileserver/mountpoint /home/likewise-open/MYDOMAIN/MYUSER/Mountpoint

  And it works.
  But then if i try to change/modify/delete something , i notice all the file inside "Mount Point" are READ ONLY.

  ls -l   return this:

  drwxr-xr-x 1 root  root                0 2010-03-31 12:24 Mountpoint

  Of course //Fileserver/mountpoint is completely writable by the domain user i am using.
  In Intrepid Installation (likewise version 4) it works perfectly
  but ls -l gives little difference:
  drwxrwxrwx 1 root  root                0 2010-03-31 12:24 Mountpoint

  So with  Likewise Open 5.4.0.42111-2  i can mount just in Read Only.
  I suppose it is a bug.

  Regards
