Hi ianmidd,
I'm pretty sure the issue is tied to what version of Samba your Maxtor
is running. If it's 3, it's a problem -- that's why when I upgraded my
NS and got Samba on it up to v3 the problem went away. Can you run the
following commands and report back?
sudo apt-get install smbclient

In the process of mounting the windows share via command line, looks
like the mount shows up as owned by root:root. Could this be part of the
problem?

The device is a little NS box, the D-Link DS-323. Connecting via
smbclient gives me the following:
Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.8a]
Looks like it's running Samba 2.2.8a. There's a firmware upgrade to get
it to Samba v3, I'll apply that and see what happens.
Re: other bugs,
Interesting. Looks like upgrading my device to v1.0.4 (which upped Samba
3.0.24) did the trick. Now works as expected, dragging from window to
desktop copies the files no problem. Maybe a Samba 2 vs Samba 3 problem.
Anyway, looks fixed to me. :)
