The Unix file attributes are a fake since Sharity can't decide whether a
user WOULD be able to access a file without actually trying to access it.
You need to authenticate the user "nobody" to the server. This can be done
(assuming that you are root) by:
su nobody
cifslogin server -U remote_user_name
and optionally
cifsstore server
See 'cifslogin -man' and 'cifsstore -man' for details.
