I am under the impression that you are confusing some things here. Since you
know.

/dev/hdb4/mnt/zip vfatuser,noauto 0
0
then the user enters
mount /dev/hdb4
and the zip drive is mounted with the user as the owner. I assume the

Here's my fstab entry for my vfat partion:
/dev/hda1 /mnt/vfat vfat user,owner,exec,dev,suid,rw,conv=auto,uid=500,gid=500,auto
1 2
It automounts and allows me as user and group 500 to read, write,

When you find out, let me know. I went round and
