Unable to copy directory FROM remote location

[Richard Lyon]

Binary package hint: nautilus

Ubuntu 8.04, fully updated.

Nautilus is unable to copy + paste a directory from a remote location (such as a network HDD or FTP location) to my local machine.

As far as I can tell there is no problem with permissions on my machine (I even tried chmod'ing the target folder to 777 with no luck), or with the remote location (I have full crud access)

The specific error I get is:

Error while copying "FolderName".
There was an error copying the file into /target/folder.

> Show more details:
Permission denied

Obviously this isn't correct behaviour...

I believe that this bug is not a duplicate, although may stem from a similar bug.

The error message is different (permission denied rather than inaccesible file) and it occurs on local network locations (which aren't(?) ftp)
