First, some general points:

ZFS supports much more fine grain access control through ACLs which are
actually pretty similar to Windows ACLs, so although 777 means everyone
has full access in traditional Unix sense it doesn't exactly translate
to everyone full-control from Windows/CIFS client point of view.

To see the ACL of the shared directory you can use "ls -vd" on your ZFS
filesystem.

Besides the ACL, ZFS now supports DOS attributes including read-only
attribute. When a file is marked read-only, then regardless of the
permissions or the ACL, you cannot write to it. Obviously, this is not
the issue here since your source is a Linux box.

About the problem:

Although 777 gives write permission to everybody, it's not clear what
permissions "smbclient put" command is using to open the file with. Can
you capture and/or read network traces to see where exactly you're
getting the error?

By the way, I only see one problem why the title is "CIFS problems"? :)
