Reply with quote

Hello everybody.

I'm setting up the mounting of my ntfs windows partition, read-only. My problem is the following: the normal users can mount the partition, but can not access it. root can access to it.

Here is the line from my /etc/fstab:

Code:

/dev/hda3 /mnt/windows ntfs noauto,ro,user 0 0

A normal user can mount /mnt/windows , and when he tries to access it:

Quote:

blutch $ ls /mnt/windows
ls: /mnt/windows/: Permission denied

The permissions for the /mnt/windows directory are drwxr-xr-x before mounting, and dr-x------ after mounting. Also, if i set the owner of /mnt/windows to blutch:users, after mounting it becomes root:root.

Can someone help me?
