thanks. here is copied from my terminal window:
drwxr-xr-x 1 root users 0 2009-01-09 19:06 Bluetooth Exchange Folder -rw-r--r-- 2 root users 130 2009-01-09 18:53 Files named @.wmv.fnd
Ok, it means it has been mounted by root, and only root can write. You have several alternatives: * umount as root, then mount as user. For this you need to add "user" to your fstab line, before the "users": /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST9250827AS_5RG0CMC3-part1 /windows/C ntfs-3g user,users,gid=users,... etc You can also add "noauto" so that you don't need to umount first as root. This is my prefered method. * You can add a "uid=username" (or number), which will define the owner of all files (vfat and ntfs only, I think), regardless of who mounts it. * you can set write permissions for the group. This can be done with "fmask=0117,dmask=0007", for instance. I do this. * I forgot what I was going to suggest now, I'm multitasking with a movie on tv. O:-) - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
