you need to specify a uid and/or gid for the mount uid is best/most secure if it's only one account (+root of course) that needs access, if theres more than one login needing write access you'll have to go with useing gid. My local setup uses the group users to define family members, any other accounts stay w/ just the unique group created for each user (ex. family:users, remote:remote) adopt this style or create another group , vfatuser or what ever you'd like and add the users to the group (via linuxconf or manualy in /etc/groups) once thats done you can modify the fstab The option is, uid=502 or gid=100 Don't forget proper commas and such and it should go rather painlessly On Mon, 21 Jun 1999, Jeanette Russo wrote: > I need to be able to save files to my DOS vfat partition as a user.
