I have OpenSSH installed on my windows server (2012r2) at home. I have an Ubuntu 14 VPS instance which I am attempting to use sshfs to mount some folders from the windows server on the VPS.

I can 

  ssh into the windows server from the VPS.
  mount the folder from the windows server on the VPS.
  browse through the mount point on the VPS
  cp a file from the VPS into the mount point 
       (and it shows up on the windows server)
  mv a file from the VPS into the mount point 
       (and it shows up on the windows server)
  ‘touch’ a file out on the sshfs mount, however it gives me an error 
       (touch: setting times of ‘test.txt’:   operation not permitted). 
        It should be noted the file DOES get created.
  delete files from the mount 
       (both files/folders I have created using touch/mkdir, as well as ones that 
        were already out there and created on the windows side of things).

I CAN NOT modify a file in the mount point

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
