the AOLS FAQ[1], the Good Book[2] and Google[3] are great resources that
will answer many of your questions. don't hesitate to use them. ;-)

see also 'man mount' for mount options for fat and ntfs.

Change the enties in /etc/fstab to something simila to these:

/dev/hdxx /win/c ntfs ro,noexec,gid=users,umask=0002 1 0
/dev/hdxx /win/d vfat noexec,gid=users,umask=0002 1 0

gid=users,umask=0002 are for RW to group 'users'

Ciao
Giovanni
