How is your Mac connecting to your Windows machine? If the Windows
machine is only giving the Mac restricted access less than its own
administrative privileges, which is quite likely, that is probably
where the problem lies. I don't think it has anything to do with the
Mac side. If the Mac can copy the files, it will. From what you are
saying it sounds like Windows is denying the Mac access to some of the
files. I actually had something similar happen before, and had to
make the account that the Mac was using to connect to the Windows box
an admin manually.

The situation I've got is this. I am migrating my files from my
windows laptop to my macbook across my network. My account on the
windows side has administrater privilages and it lets me read and
write the files without a problem.
Today I coppied over my website. My website is just over 400
megabytes in size. There are the html and php files that make up
the content of the site, and then there are data folders that
contain jpeg and gif images, as well as .txt and .doc files, along
with the ocasional zip archive that contains jpeg files. Things
went well at first. Until it got to just over 300 meg of the
coppy. Then, smack in the middle of coppying it throws up these
errors. It's as if the mac has decided that some jpeg images are
worthy and others are not.
I tried rebooting.
I tried coppying starting from the folder where the copy left off,
and got the same thing. The system simpley deems these particular
files out of bounds for some reason.
Best,
Erik
