Copying files from Mac OS X 10.5 to Linkstation Duo cause files to lock.

Hi,

We have a new Linkstation Pro Duo. We are running into a problem when copying files from Mac OS 10.5 Leopard onto the Linkstation. When the files are copied from Leopard, only the Leopard machine can access the files. Other machines (Windows and other Mac OSX) cannot acces the files. They get a file is open or locked error message. This only happends when the files are coppied from the Leopard machine. Everything else seems to work as expected.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

If you switch the connection to a SMB mount, it should resolve the issue. 

1. Open Finder

2. Go to the "Go" menu

3. Choose "Connect to server"

4. In the server field, type SMB:// and than the ip address of the Linkstation.
