Here below is my /etc/fstab
<snip>
/dev/hda5 / ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/hda6 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto
sync,user,noauto,nosuid,nodev,unhide 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto
user,noauto,nosuid,exec,nodev,ro 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts mode=0622 0 0
/dev/hdc1 /home ext2 defaults 0 0
/dev/hda1 /mnt/dos vfat defaults 0 0
</snip>
When logged as a comon' user I never
can write on the DOS partitions (it's a real pity).
Doing a "su" & then requesting as root to "chown" of /dev/hda1
I've the following error :
<snip>
[root@Calvin dos]# chown -v tsmets.users *
failed to change owner of My Documents to tsmets.users
chown: My Documents: Operation not permitted
failed to change owner of My Download Files to tsmets.users
chown: My Download Files: Operation not permitted
...
</snip>
When I see the description of the CHOWN command
Usage: chown [OPTION]... OWNER[.[GROUP]] FILE...
It's what I do ... or I'm wrong ?
Thomas,
p.s. :
users is a group with ID 100
tsmets is a user with ID 501
