    Mount permissions

    Hi

    I'm having trouble changing permissions of mounted directories.

    I'm using Mandrake 10.1, and basically I am able to mount 2 different windows fat32 partitions, but for some reason can only access them via root.

    Below is my fstab:
    /dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults 1 1
    none /dev/pts devpts mode=0620 0 0
    /dev/hda7 /home ext3 defaults 1 2
    /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom auto umask=0,user,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,noauto,ro,exec,users 0 0
    none /mnt/floppy supermount dev=/dev/fd0,fs=ext2:vfat,--,umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-15,sync,codepage=850 0 0
    /dev/hdb9 /mnt/osshare vfat defaults 0 0
    /dev/hda6 /mnt/win_c vfat umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850 0 0
    none /proc proc defaults 0 0
    /dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0
    /dev/hdb7 /mnt/win_c2 vfat umask=0,iocharset=iso8859-15,codepage=850,users 0 0

    The directorys I'm having trouble with are /mnt/osshare & /mnt/win_c2. Both their permissions are drwxr--r-- and refuse to change when I issue a 'chmod 755 /mnt/osshare' command.

    Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

    Thanks guys
