hi all, I've got c:\winXP,d:\data and suse 8.1 on my system, my question is how to make ordinary user can rw on my FAT32 fs and r on my NTFS fs ? My system only allows ordinary user to r on d:\data and nothing on NTFS fs. thx

Edit /etc/fstab as root and change the lines corresponding to the fat and ntfs partitions: For example, I use /dev/hda1 /windows/C vfat auto,nouser,ro 0 0 /dev/hda5 /windows/D vfat auto,nouser,umask=000 0 0 This allows me to read the "C drive" (ro) and do anything on the "D drive" (umask=000). See man fstab and man mount for more details. -- JDL
