ok so by the sounds of it you're mounting an SMB share from the nas. you need to make sure you're fstab options include rw,user
also there's options to set it so that it mounts it as a specific user as well...

what OS is sharing the directory? is it a samba share or a windows share?

also make sure you're mounting it as CIFS not SMB

for example, my one VM that mounts a windows share is like this

mount -t cifs -o credentials=/root/.creds,uid=1000,gid=1000,file_mode=0644 //192.168.0.XX/grandchild /mnt

anything else, reach out i'll help where i can
