I should have said before .  The machine is not a machine as such it is a 
Network Storage Link for USB 2.0 disk drives. The disks are formatted ext3 
and windows identifies the unit as a windows NT 4.9 server !!!

All I want to do is copy files from my gentoo box to the usb disk via the 
network.

I have tried mounting the disks using cifs but this produced alot of errors,  
I feel that a direct connection command would be best.
In KDE I can copy files using Konqueror to lan://pc2/ which shows my 
device.homenet.com.  If I then click on the device I get 3 icons NFS SMB HTTP
If I click on SMB the location changes to smb://device.homenet.com and I can 
copy any files I want - even links seem to work

I'm sure there must be a simple answer to this
