Re: [Plug] Controlling access to a dos partition
|
Try looking at the mount man pages, then set appropriate
rights
in /etc/fstab. I just glanced, but I found an option for
umask
that looks pretty promising. BTW, I would mount it as -t
vfat
rather than -t msdos, if you're not already.

It only takes one person to break a program if the source
code is closed,
if it's open, it only takes one person to fix it.
