I cannot change permissions of the files on WIN (FAT32) partitions ... Whatever I type permission are unchanged ... Please help

Yes, since a VFAT file system is not able to store permissions, it is not possible to change them. But you can define the permissions which the files appear to have. Have a look at the mount options umask, uid and gid (man mount).

/dev/hda1 /C vfat defaults 1 1

E.g., with this line changed to /dev/hda1 /C vfat defaults,umask=002,gid=100 1 1 group 100 (users) will have write permissions to all files on this partition.
