/dev/[whatever] /mnt/[whatever]    ntfs user,exec,umask=0 0 0

Basically, NTFS and FAT don't have access controls [okay, NTFS does, and 
they're better than Linux's, but Linux doesn't recognize them]. Do you 
need a default permission [also called a umask] to assign to the mounted 
disk [and all files and folders within it].
