Unless you want to run stuff from your home[1] I would tighten this to:
fmask=117,dmask=007

Thanks Charlie, Russell, Neal, Zind and Tom.
As you say, the problem is the NTFS partition does not support ownership for
individual folders (not POSIX compatible), just one ownership for the whole
partition.

I recently was unable to change ownership, permissions, etc., of a
directory. Finally I discovered that I somehow had mounted the
directory twice, and that the second mount was inhibiting changes.

Thanks Neal and Charlie, I've tried:
*# chown -Rv gean:gean /home/gean* but the ownership stays the same root,

Good night friends, I'll appreciate some help here: For some reason, I'm not
owner of my home folder, that implicates in some problems for programs that
have to create folders here, as Wine for example. I've tried change the
ownership of the directory with:
*# chown -Rv gean:gean /home/gean/*
