How can I set up the MS-DOS File System to allow writing from others than
root?  I looked through all the files I have, but it's not in them, and I
don't have FTP to get new ones.

My /etc/fstab is like so:

/dev/hdb1       /       ext2            defaults
/dev/hdb2       /home   ext2            defaults
/dev/hda1       /dosc   msdos           defaults
/dev/mcd0       /cdrom  iso9660         defaults
none            /proc   proc            defaults

What does "defaults" get changed to?

Thanks.

The options field in /etc/fstab for mounting an msdos file system lets
you specify the user ID, group ID, and permissions mask to be applied
to all files on the mounted file system.  For example,

/dev/hda4       /c      msdos   noexec,uid=123,gid=456,umask=022

would assign ownership of all files to the user whose ID in the passwd
file is 123, with group ID 456, and a permission mask of 022.  The
noexec options disallows execution of any files from the file system.
