can't access ntfs partition as normal user
i have an ntfs partition on /dev/hda1, but when i mount it as normal user i cant read anything from it
there is no problem when mounting and accessing fat partition on /dev/hda5 here is two line from my /etc/fstab /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 ntfs ro,user 0 0 /dev/hda5 /mnt/hda5 vfat rw,user,umask=133 0 0 |
Try the umask parameter (e.g. umask=000) for the ntfs partition as well. Also check the permission of the mountpoint (/mnt/hda1).

i dont think the usmak can solve the problem
but here is information about permission: /dev/hda1 owner: root group: disk chmod:660 /dev/hda5 owner: root group: disk chmod:660 /mnt/hda1 owner: root group: disk chmod: 660 /mnt/hda5 owner: root group: disk chmod: 660 when i mount the /dev/hda1 i notice that the permission of the /mnt/hda1 changed to: /mnt/hda1 owner: root group: root chmod: 600 note: the normal user account is a member of 'disk' group |
Why don't you think umask will help? I am willing to learn!
From what I know it controls the default permissions on the mounted filesystem and this is what goes wrong here. You can also try to set gid=disk, but with these permissions set, the group still does not have access. But maybe I am wrong. |
because i've tried it...
and from what i read it will change the default permission of all files on the mounted directory NOT the mounted directory itself hmmm, i think i'll read more on man pages carefully |
/dev/hda2 /mnt/windows ntfs user,umask=000
that's my line in Fstab, i can read from both root/normal user. |
well, i think i found the solution, it is still related to umask (sorry to abisko00 for saying that wouldn't solve the problem :))
i must enter the umask four digit to get it work correctly like what i want |
