Mounting a Windows Partition (NTFS)

Since YaST2 Partitioner proved completely useless and never seemed to
bother to write any of my choices to my FSTAB.
Thus I modified the FSTAB myself. there are no problems with the mounted
partition and I can read everything fine, the problem is that regular,
non-root users cannot, this is posing a problem as I can hardly allow
people temporary access to the root account. obviously the problem lies
with the permissions but as the partition is classed as read only, I
cannot change them. there is obviously something to allow me to change
the default somewhere so would someone care to enlighten me?
