[aclug-L] dos file permissions under linux

["administrator" <walrus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Does anyone know how to set file permissions on a fat32 drive that is mounted 
under Linux?  Right now it is owned by root has these permissions:  drwxr-xr-x. 
 I have Samba set up, and I can see it from the network but I can't write to 
it.  I have tried to modify the /etc/fstab file after reading the man pages for 
mount, but it is not working out for me.  I am obviously doing something wrong. 
 Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Michael
