I didn't see it yesterday, but it seems that is is always the write bit that does not get set properly. The umask values that work are only those that do /not/ allow writing to all files. Is it possible that the files have been marked "read-only" in Windows and that mount respects that setting? best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 ICQ #17079270 Registered Linux User #267976 http://www.andreas-janssen.de/debian-tipps.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
