The trick with USB (or indeed any device) is to work out whether there's a
supported driver for it, either in the kernel or as a third party one.
Since you've said that a USB memory stick works okay, then it's fairly safe
to assume that the correct chipset drivers are being loaded by Ubuntu
years out of date now due to the lead developer's DVR dying a while
ago.
However. it may well be that the DVR is supported in a later Linux kernel,
the USB IDs will really help in determining that.

I've Googled the DVR model number you gave for Linux support and came to
this page, but note that it's 18 months old:

I'm on Vodafone and had a Google Nexus One (which I've kept to use with PAYG
and as an audiobook player) but recently had the option of a free upgrade so
went for the HTC Desire Z - the only thing that swung it for me was the
pull-out keyboard which I use with the Android ConnectBot SSH client for
after sending the
last email that it needed moderator approval so was able to cancel it.

I've not used vsftpd in a while but I suspect if you get stuck into the
documentation for it, you will find that it probably has in-built protection
against accessing directories with 777 permissions, as it is a fairly major

About 25 years ago, I got to the 29th floppy disk out of 30 when installing

I use Gnome on Gentoo Linux with a UK keyboard but occasionally plug in a

For any network service, you probably should make sure that the machine name
can be resolved to an IP address, and an IP address back to a name as the
reverse lookup is frequently used to detect IP spoofing.
So, for example, if client PC A on 192.168.1.1 is connecting to the server
PC B on
could not resolve internally to an IP address.
The solution was to change a DHCP client configuration to ignore any
hostnames given by the DHCP server, and now it always works.
It's very important to get DHCP and name resolution working in sync.

If you're interested in finding out the root cause then it might be worth
backing up the router config and doing a factory reset on it just to prove
it's not something screwy in the firmware, if nothing else you will
eliminate that as a possible cause.

So who does the web hosting for that?
I've not done much research into it myself yet but have been meaning to put
something up with Drupal for some time.
I assume most web hosters will support Drupal now, but I should really start
looking into it.

It's definitely not a BT Home Hub 2 is it? Those are the exact symptoms of
what I get with the known bug I mentioned earlier.
It might also be worth mentioning that BT Home Hubs are made by Thomson,
even though I suspect that BT have their own specific firmware for it.
