Hi i have an ntfs partition which i want mounted automatically on a normal users account as read only. When i login to a users account the partition is not mounted to mount it i have to provide a root password which i dont want to disclose to my friends. How can i make my Ubuntu mount the partition automatically in read only.

Add this to /etc/fstab /dev/sda2 /mnt/Windows ntfs ro 0 2 what the above means... http://linuxdynasty.org Where IT pros come and share their knowledge..\
