Fstab giving ntfs RO axx to all users?


Code:
/dev/hda1       /media/windows  ntfs    ro, defaults,user,GID=1000,umask=0222 0       0
I wrote that, but I am not able to mount it as user /*uid=1000* The user is also part of group id=1000*/ nor axx it as a user.

well if that is a char for char copy of the entry, then you have an invalid space between "ro," and the reset of the options. the gid specified there is not who can mount it, but who the files will appear to belong to once mounted. afaik any normal user should be bale to mount it. i'd wonder why it's not mounted automatically on boot, it's not like it's going anywhere.

It is not mounted at boot and it looks like this now

Code:
/dev/hda1       /media/windows  ntfs    ro,defaults,user,GID=1000,umask=0222 0       0
as root I can mount/view but not as a standard user.
