When you use remote desktop into the server, what does "click my way
through to these shares" mean? I'm going to assume that you're access
them through Explorer locally rather than using \\computer\share\folder
in the RDP session correct?
If so, the answer is easy. You've modified the NTFS permissions but the
share permissions are still read only.
BTW - I'd fire your sysadmin and get another if he's unable to figure
this out.
