Hi everyone.
New user of Ubuntu. Installed the latest version for AMD64 Desktop. I've set up a file share, scan share and print share but been having some trouble with my external hard drives.
I have 2 external hard drives mounted, one is a 2.5" 80GB used for media and the other is a 40GB 3.5" that is used for Time Machine for my mac laptop. I plugged both into my Ubuntu box to see if I could serve them over my network and not have to plug them directly into the mac.
Both are formatted as HFS+. I've tried to write to the drives from the ubuntu box but it seems I can't, even though I've chown -R root and chgrp -R root.
I followed all the directions here:

and installed avahi and netatalk. I can login from my laptop with the username and password as well as access $u (the /home/<user> folder) without problem. However when I try to access either of the two external drives I get an error that they cannot be accessed because the original cannot be found. I see that a couple of other people seem to have this problem but from what I've come up with in a search nothing has worked yet.
Originally the time drive wasn't even showing up on the mac, but when I renamed it to all lowercase with no spaces now it shows up.
Both drives are listed in my AppleVolumes file.
Obviously I'm assuming to fix it one would need to see some sort of log or to view my configuration file so if anyone would be so kind as to let me know what you would need (and how I would be able to get that information) I would post that.
Thanks a lot for your time.
