File Copy Problem with Remote Desktop

I have a laptop with XP Pro on the road, and my office PC is situated behind
a Cisco PIX firewall in my office (also running XP pro).

I'm trying to copy files from my laptop (currently in France) to my disk
drive in the office.  The process fails with an "access or disk-full"
message.

I can copy files FROM my office PC to my laptop without problems.

I have granted read/write security rights to a single directory on my office
machine, specifying "Everyone", "Remote Users', etc -- with no luck.  I'm
just trying write to that directory.

What's the key to making this work?

Best

You left out what method you are using to "map" these drives...
Are you using "Remote Desktop" and sharing local resources?
Are you directly mapping the shares with \\host_address\sharename?
Something else?

If using the latter - are the SHARE and the FILE/FOLDER permissions BOTH
set?
