Here's my mount line from /etc/fstab /dev/hda3 /mnt/fat vfat uid=500,rw,exec 0 0 I mount it and write to it from both Linux and Windows. In fact I run Mozilla on each OS and share the same folders between the seperate installations (I know, scary) with no problems so far. I have never managed to change permissions either. I assumed that VFAT did not support them and never really looked in to it. Note NTFS (Win2K, XP) is a completely different story.
