I've no idea whether ntfs-3g has been compiled for the N900. Do a search, if you don't find anything then maybe put out a request.

I found a kernel package in the appmanager which claimed to have ntfs read/write but I had no luck with that.
With hindsight I actually think a read only format would probably be safer anyway, but there must be a way to view that mount point, maybe I have to chmod its permissions or something?
Even using MC (which Is no good for this specific task) I can only view the mount if I run it as root.
Any ideas?
Thanks again

once I have a fully working script I'll flag it as solved. =)
FileBox maybe ?

thanks theonelaw, filebox is brilliant! its almost perfect....buuuuuuut =)
when launching a file such as an avi the media player, can't access the file, so I think I need to make the mount publically accessable...unfortunatly I havn't much of a clue about that =)
on a side note, its great to get such possitive assistance from the forum =)

You could try adding these options to the mount command:
Code:
-o uid=user,gid=users

Kureyon!!! I could kiss ya!
that (nearly) worked, for some reason if I add "-o uid=user" i get an invalid argument error, which is strange to say the least.
however running the command with "-o uid=29999" worked!!!! and I have public access to the share, thank you,
am I right in assuming that number could be different on others n900 though?

tbh, write access isnt too important for my project, but I do need a way to view the files within ossofilemanager. but it seems I can only view the files as root. =(
