NTFS access as user
I've been reading many threads about being able to read an NTFS partition as a user, but I've had no luck with the suggestions in other threads. I can access the files as root but not as user. I thought I would post my fstab line for the drive here to see if anyone could help me out ....
/dev/hdb1 /media ntfs ro,umask=003,noauto,user,uid=1000 1 0 All help/comments appreciated. |

There is no ntfs partition in his example fstab. I will try using examples from his though ...
edit: Thanks for the link, his fstab line worked fine for my ntfs drive. |
Try
chown -R your_login_name:users /media this should give user permission to the mount point. By default ntfs file system are mounted with root permissions. Not sure but it is possible you should add "suid" to the mount options. Hope this helps Ciao |
here's my ntfs partitions from my fstab
/dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 ntfs ro,umask=0227,uid=1000,gid=100 0 0 /dev/hdb1 /mnt/hdb1 ntfs ro,umask=0227,uid=1000,gid=100 0 0 /dev/hdb5 /mnt/hdb5 ntfs ro,umask=0227,uid=1000,gid=100 0 0 |
Thanks :)
