 Now try and make them rwxrwxrwx! (mask=777)

 So far as I can make out, the owner gets rwx, but group and others
only gets r-x. I have to mount the drives as "owner bob" to get write
access. I can't give access to other members of the group, or simply
make the files read-write for all, as Windows does.

Regards,
Bob
