Hello: I used the following command to mount an external HD on my box: # mount -t ntfs -o umask=007 /dev/sdf5 /media/HP_Personal_Media_Drive and I got this permission: dr-xr-x--- 1 root root 12288 Dec 9 16:56 HP_Personal_Media_Drive How can I change this thing in order to have permission (as a non-root user) for writing on that external HD? My goal is to be able not only to read the external HD (as I can right do now), but also move files to it. Thanks! Hoffmann __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
