Put the machines in a domain and grant rights to the computer's domain account or create a null session share and relax the filesystem and share security on the remote machine. This second option means the share is open to the whole wide world that can access the machine over the network.
As Roger indicated, just because the network service well known security principal exists on every machine, it doesn't mean they can talk to each other. It isn't like a normal user account with a synced password on each of the machines.

Hi,.
A small WORKGROUP has two Windows Server 2003 servers - server A & server B.
I have installed an application on server A and by default it runs under the account "Network Service".
This application writes files to a local directory without problems but when I map a folder from server A to server B and use that mapped network folder, it fails.
Note that on server B I have also granted full control permission to account "Network Service".
What needs to be done to allow "Network Service" account to write to a network shared folder?
thanks,
Speech Lover
