If you add the "user" option, then any user can mount the partition with file perms uid:gid. Typically, NTFS partitions are mounted 'ro' to ensure it does not get corrrupted by writes. Have you modified, created, deleted files on this mount point and rebooted to Windows? Did it complaint of any file system corruption? -- Arun Khan -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
