Mike, this suggests that whatever user is login in to the remote box doesn't <br>
have the rights to 'mkdir /media/bmike1/Seagate' <br>
<br>
Login to that box with that user and run that mkdir.<br>
If it fails (and most likely will), you know what the problem is.<br>
Being that the problem, there is a wide array of options to overcome it.<br>
