An NTFS partition not accessible to the normal user


Hi,

When mounting 2 different partitions (one FAT32, two NTFS) using the same options in FSTAB, i get one partition (FAT32) fully accessible to the normal user, and the other one (NTFS) only readable to root.

A normal user can't even change to that directory.

Any known solutions?

Thanks.

Here's a typical line for NTFS - substitue in your partition and mount point.

/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs auto,ro,umask=0222 0 0
