Have you tried "man mount" and read the available options for the FAT
filesystem (+ the ones for VFAT ?) "man mount on my debian lenny box" Wrote:

I would suggest giving the files to "nobody/nogroup", everybody should
be able to access r/w the files. Perhaps specifying a umask of 000 is
needed too, but I doubt it.
So your stanza in fstab would be:
/dev/sdb1 /storage/music/flac vfat defaults,users,uid=65534,gid=65534 0
0

(Type "id nobody" or "id squeezeboxserver" etc. to see the uid and gid
used for nobody's and squeezeboxserver's account.)

I didn't test what I suggest here. I may be wrong.
