I've tried several shares. Only on one of them I get an
error with install:

When I look at the properties of this share it says it uses DFS
(Distributed File System). This drive shows the access bits
as -rwxrwxrwx, the others have -rw-r--r--

with all of them I see the Permission Denied on mv.
I have to ask our administrators for more details.

One of my shares is a hosted on a unix system with a different
account, I'm not sure whether winbind is run. On this share, I have the 
mv issue only.
