Other accounts can't access partition "hdb1"


I have a partition at "hdb1", all accounts cannot access it but root. I have other partitions on the same harddrive and they are all accessible.

hdb1 is in windows NTFS filesystem the rest are FAT. Here is the fstab in comparison to another
Code:
/dev/hdb1        /mnt/par1     ntfs        auto,ro,users,sync,exec,dev,suid           1   0
/dev/hdb6        /mnt/par2    vfat        auto,users,exec,dev,suid,sync     1   0

Why can't other users besides root access hdb1?

Thanks in advance!
