Try fmask & dmask instead.
It's the same as umask, except fmask applies only to files and dmask only to directories. /dev/sda5 /mnt/WindowsData vfat rw,defaults,dmask=007,fmask=117,uid=dave 0 0 The above modification to David's fstab entry should do the trick. -- Regards Vivek Registered Linux User #374218 Livin' The iLife ~ http://www.ilifenet.net
