I blame Microsoft for not opening the file share protocol long ago so
samba could interoperate better, but I don't think this specific

It is an odd scenario.  Doing it the other way around is probably more
common - but I thought Microsoft had a reasonable NFS these days that
MS-centric admins might be able to set up.

Anyway google turned up a few hits on possibly similar samba issues.
Does adding ,nounix,noserverinfo to the mount options help?
