Hello,
I have a small problem with default permissions of Automounted

sets all files to be owned by root.

This is normal behavior on all "Unix" filesystems AFAIK. The root of a
filesystem always belongs to root. Try creating a directory on it and
then modify the permissions/owner of it. That should work fine.
