Surely my network will copy the file? Don't forget I can view all windows files and folders from kubuntu. I just don't have the damned necessary permissions to replace my own samba file on my own computer ! When I try to paste the file into place, it won't allow it. Would a command line command not be able to access a networked share and copy it? If I stick it on a usb drive I'm going to have the same problem with permissions and no way to get round it.
