This shouldn't be significant but is there a reason that you changed
your uid to 503 from 1003?
503 is what we usually use for the build user on our linux boxes, I had
changed it to see if it would do anything ownership wise, but it didn't. I
changed it back to 1003 and rebooted, but no change in behavior.

Hm, what does 'ls -ln' look like? I can guess but I shouldn't do that.

That covers all the obvious things for me. I'd recommend taking a look at
the SAMBA server to see if user IDs are mapped correctly. Also, I know
there were some problems in the past with older Samba servers, bugs and
all. Make sure you're using a current version there. It may be
worthwhile to look at the permissions and owners from the Windows
perspective too. If that doesn't get you anywhere, I'd recommend filing
a full problem report on your follow-up to the list. See the link below
for full details:
I don't think the CIFS server is using Samba, actually. It is a Celerra
storage array from EMC
(<http://www.emc.com/products/family/celerra-family.htm>), and in this
case, it isn't hooked up to an AD server like they usually have them.
