You are not providing much detail but I am going to try and guess the answer.

Your WS SMB user has his WS name account also as a Solaris name account? It looks like the Solaris login credentials used are giving visibility of the files on the Solaris system. Good. So you can see them but not edit or create them?

In this scenario Solaris security still takes effect so the protection mask on the Solaris share must allow that user write access. Moreover, probably in order to edit such a file editors often need to create a temporary work file so to do that the parent directory be allowed to be written to. So as a test I would set the parent directory protection mask on the Solaris box to 777 and see if that works. If it does you can decide afterwards how much you can tighten up that security before it stops working.

I could be completely wrong in my understanding of your issue so, if I am, please provide more detail.
