 Posted: Mon Dec 05, 2005 8:16 pm Post subject: Gentoo nOOb Question on Permissions |
 |
|
I just installed gentoo on my computer and am trying to view my windows partitions..
I can only do this in root though. I have tried to change the permissions with chmod..
Truthfully though I don't really know how to do this....
I know in mandrake I could view this..
any help would be awsome
thanks

You have to change the umask:
example entry in /etc/fstab
| Code: | | /dev/hda1 /mnt/ntfs ntfs umask=0000 0 0 |
umask=0000 will allow all users and group to perform read, write and execution.
For a more secure umask, please consult:

| Quote: | | For example, if you want that everybody be able to read, write, and execute every file in your /mnt/c, you should specify the mask 0000: |
umask 0002 means that the owner and the owners group can read, write and execute and also that last digit (2) means that everybody else on the system can only read!
Please have a look at the table describing this at: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Mount_Windows_partitions_%28DOS%2C_FAT%2CNTFS%29#umask:_octal_file_permissions
