Chown/chmod only works on file systems that support it, and I don't
believe that NTFS does. At least the Linux implementation does not.
So you are limited to the mount options to set things for the entire
file system. You can change the apparent permissions on the
files/directories with some of the mount options.

When serving out Samba shares, I find that if you tell Samba to use
the same user/group as you mounted the file system as works well.
