[Plug] msdos volumes


I know this is probably an impossibly newbie question, but here goes:

I have three dos volumes on my Linux laptop: /dosc, /dosd, and /dose.
Reading and writing to them as root is no problem. However, when I'm logged
in as myself (not root), the volumes are read-only, which is a nuisance. I
have tried as root to "chown" on an entire volume or directories within a
volume so that I can access them from my normal account, but I get a
"permission denied" error.

Is there a solution to this problem, and if so could someone please email it
to me? Thanks in advance.

Also: I'm about to order a web server from one of the Linux-ready companies
(e.g. Penguin). Has anyone had any experiences good or bad with any of these
vendors?

Thanks,
--Hugh
