[SLUG] Linux to Windows file transfer

Hi All:

Sorry but I have about had it with computers.

Anyway I would appreciate a little help with Linux.

I have a dual boot Win 98 and RH 7.3 box with 2 10 GB HD, one with Win and one
with Linux.

Anyway the Windows side has a problem so I copied the complete Windows sustem
from the Win side to a directory called Backup_Win_98 using Linux.

The problem arises in that I would like to copy files from the Linux side to
the Win side utilizing Linux.

This being one of my super wang dong special configurations the Win side is
mounted to: /home/trunk/Win_98.

The files from Win to Linux were copied by using MC under the user GUI trunk.

All attempts to copy files form the Linux side to the Win side in trunk
produces the error permission denied.

Ok so I log in as trunk, not sus or by a terminal window, as root in KDE and
attempt to transfer the files using MC. On each set of transfers I again
obtained the error message permission denied.

The question thus become:

1) If rood does not have permission to transfer an Windows execuitable who
does?

2) What does it take to transfer these files back to the Win side?

Thanks

Frank
