how do you let various users write to a vfat drive. The only way i have been able to do it is by squishing everybody to root but i don't really like that. Is there a better way of doing this?
Put all the users into a group, say `vfat' and add something like /dev/hda1 /mnt/dos vfat rw,auto,async,uid=0,gid=???,umask=002 0 0 to /etc/fstab where ??? is the group id of the vfat group. That way root and everybody in vfat has read/write/execute permission all others only read/execute.
