In the past, running SUSE or Red Hat Linux, I could copy files easily between Linux and Windows systems using a memory card. If I needed background pictures on my Linux server - copy files to a memory card from Windows and SUSE and Red Hat saw the files.

Now I've added a Debian server. I have graphics (*.jpg) that I want to copy over for background and Debian sees the file folders along with their pictures and moved them but it didn't see any of the *.jpg images that weren't in these three directories.

So I created a new directory (on the Debian server) and then put the memory card in my Windows system and, nope, couldn't see the new directory. But I could see the other three folders and their contents. So I created a directory and put the files that weren't in a directory into the new directory. Moved the memory card over and, nope, Linux could still see the three directories but not the new one.

I searched for some utility that would enable this and I seem to recall DOStoLinux utilities (that may be automatically installed with SUSE and Red Hat) but have been drawing a blank.

I've checked file permissions of the files both can see and those one can but the other can't and see no issues. It doesn't make sense to me that both Windows and Linux can see some files, the same files, but are each selective of others.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Nick.
