Then something is bugged: mkfs.ntfs -f -v /dev/hda1 mount -t ntfs -o rw,gid=users,fmask=0000,dmask=0000

(0777) Even root is now unable to create files under /mnt/data01, however changing the permissions of /mnt/data01 at least now has the cosmetic affect of getting changed: ie: hummer:/mnt/data01 # chmod 0700 /mnt/data01/ && echo $? 0 hummer:/mnt/data01 # ls -ld /mnt/data01/ drwx------ 1 root users 4096 Jan 12 12:45 /mnt/data01/ In the log I can see where it is using ntfs v3.1 which is what is needed for Vista compatability (per the documentation anyway) Anyone else get this to work... -CC On 1/12/08, Carlos E.
