Hello Group!

you need an extra option to mount a windows partition and access it
with a normal user:

defaults,umask=000

The umask changes file-permissions, so that you can access the mounted
partition with any user on the system.

example:

# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0
/dev/hda9       /mnt/share      vfat    defaults,umask=000      0       
0
