Have you reviewed the permissions settings in the shares on the NAS ?
Are they set to default Read/Write and Guest Access is checked in APF and CIFS ?
In the Mac, Go to FInder>Go>Network - what do you see ?
Is your user name and password the same on the PC and the Mac ?
Are you a user in the Security>User & Group Accounts section of the NAS Frontview ? Do you have the same user name and password ?
If you are using Win7, then I remember there was some issue with connecting to/from a NAS share and the best way was to make the share folder part of your user share. No help if you want to access this folder from other users. (Not an issue with Xp).
You should not need to be logged-in as Admin to be able to cut/paste to a NAS share.
