I wonder if someone could please help, sorry for the wordy post.

At the moment I have an AEBS (n only) running my network with an iMac, ATV and macBook, connected I have a Linksys router attached to the AEBS running as a WAP (g only on the same subnet.) with macMini,PC and Wii connected wirelessly . I want to take the external HD that I have attached to my iMac connect it to the AEBS and use it for Time Machine for the 3 macs in the house. When I do this the iMac sees the drive fine and continues to be able to access its original backup but it does not let write a new one (not enough space). The mini (on the linksys g ) sees the HD lets me connect to it and even shows up as available as a TM backup drive but it wont let me use it, when I try to select it to on/off slider goes to off . I do believe the problem is with me the setting in the Airport file sharing tabs and maybe reformatting the HD but I just cant work it out .

Thank you in advance
