They're read only on windows, we're trying to get around this somehow... I
thought that using the fmask would override the existing permissions(?)

What are the permissions of those read-only files on the machine from 
which you are mount them? It seems that files which are read-only on 
mounted filesystem are read only on the original filesystem, and 
therefore could not be written. In this case the computer on which the 
files are actually stored will block write access even if the files are 
shown as not read-only on your computer.
