I have an ntfs disk partition that my thin client users (each on his own account) can access. There is one folder that I want to password protect but can't. I ran Nautilus under sudo and right-click on that folder to see its permissions and everything is attributed to root. But when I attempt to change the "others/folder access" setting to "none" (from "create and delete files") it just pops right back to "create and delete files". I tried chmod 700 from terminal but it had no affect (though it didn't return any error). I have the opposite problem with the partition in general: my users can't access the paritition until I use my password (the server is turned off every night) because it belongs to root, but I'd like to remove the password protection. When I try to switch the ownership to something else, the setting just bounces back to root. By the way, permissions work properly for folders on the Ubuntu partition. I appreciate the help.
