I have the following network set up:

Netgear DG834GT router as my ADSL connection and operating as "G" wireless for IBM T22 Laptop with XP Pro. Dell desktop connected via cable running Ubuntu 8.04LTS.

TC running "N" only for my MBP as a bridge from the Netgear.

All software and hardware have the latest updates installed.

The MBP and IBM can access and read/write to the TC, the MBP can access the shared files on the IBM. (Not yet worked out how to share files on the MBP).

The Dell running Ubuntu can see the TC and IBM, it can access the shared files on the IBM. It cannot see the files on the TC and when I try to put a file on the TC it gives a not permitted error message. The Dell was previously running XP Pro and could read/write to the TC.

I am guessing this is a Ubuntu setting/compatibility problem. Has any one any idea how/if I can get Ubuntu to read/write to the TC please.
