Once all files appear with yourself as owner, many permission problems (derived from 'other' not having [write on files/execute on dirs] permissions) will go away. You can also use dir_more and file_mode to force 777/666 for all files in the mount, but that's frowned upon for obvious reasons :-) HTH, -- Shimi
