I'd like to know if it is possible to mount MSDOS partitions in such a
way that ordinary users can write to that disk. Right now only root
has write rights. A similar problem occurs with the NTFS (read only)
partitions: only root can read and I'd like ordinary users to be
allowed to read as well. Constructive suggestions would be greatly
appreciated...
Regards,
Borre

or via mount
mount -t msdos -o umask=000 /dev/hda1 /dosc

Add the 'umask=000' option to the mount command or the /etc/fstabQuote:>I'd like to know if it is possible to mount MSDOS partitions in such a

The 'noauto,user' is so that it isn't mounted at boot-up, but
can be mounted by anyone, simply with 'mount /dosc'

1. Writing to Windows Partition as Ordinary User
I cannot write to a Windows partition as an ordinary user, only as root.
I want all users to be able to write to it. What must I do?
The partition is /dev/hdc6 and it is mounted read/write on /mnt/win.
Permissions of /mnt/win are rwxr-xr-x and I cannot change them.
Suid also does not work.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Rik
