Hi,

I try to mount a NTFS Partition from my Windows XP System under RH8.
Here is my fstab entry:

[root@devil /]# more /etc/fstab

/dev/hda1               /WXP               auto    users,ro        0 0

The partition will be mounted without any problems as user, BUT after
it, the permissions will be set to:

dr-x------    1 root     root         8192 Okt 12 10:58 WXP

And this is not my intention. Now I can't open the WXP dir as user, only
as root anymore. After umount, the folder has it's old permissions as
before:

dr-xr-xr-x    1 root     root         8192 Okt 12 10:58 WXP

I looked into the mount man page but I didn't found anything helpful ...

Better look again. Under "Mount options for ntfs":

uid=value, gid=value and umask=value
       Set  the  file  permission  on  the filesystem.  By default, the
       files are owned by root and not readable by somebody else.   The
       umask value is given in octal.
