Ok, thanks. I got it to work. I could not use the mount/ remount command
in the same line, so I tried to do a umount, and then next line 'mount'
again. It worked. I have rw permission on the drive now. Also when I
used dolphin to copy a file to that drive, a message came up that said
"could not change permissions", but the file copied over anyway.

thanks
george
