Check what your umask is in your /etc/fstab file; mine is 000.
Also make sure you don't have ro 9read-only0 by your hdimage in your
dosemu.conf.
Also check what is set in your user file for dosemu.
I know this should work, because I had the same problem at one point.
And I now have a /dos directory (analogous to your /win) where all the files are
owned by root but I can write to it and delete with no problem. It sounds like
something 9either your umask in /etc/fstab or permissions in dosemu somewhere)
is resetting your permissions.
I just finally found the place in the dosemu howto where it explains this. I was
wrong; you should type \mkdir -m 777 /win
not 1777 as I said before. I am including the appropriate part of the howto
here.


   First, mount your dos hard disk partition as a Linux subdirectory. For
   example, you could create a directory in Linux such as /dos (mkdir -m
   755 /dos) and add a line like
    /dev/hda1       /dos     msdos   umask=022

   to your /etc/fstab. (In this example, the partition is mounted
   read-only. You may want to mount it read/write by replacing "022" with
   "000" and using the -m 777 option with mkdir). Now mount /dos.
