Here's my fstab entry for my vfat partion:

/dev/hda1 /mnt/vfat   vfat user,owner,exec,dev,suid,rw,conv=auto,uid=500,gid=500,auto 
1 2

It automounts and allows me as user and group 500 to read, write,
segfault ;), etc.  This entry was generated using linuxconf, under 6.2
As I recall, the entries at the end (1 and 2) are from the either the
fstab or mount man page...I forget.  It is a bit obtuse chasing this
stuff, for sure :|
