In this case you are using ntfs instead of ntfs-3g. ntfs does not support writing, while ntfs-3g does. I'd try changing them to:
Code:
# /dev/sda2
UUID=466855A96855990F /media/sda2 ntfs-3g defaults,fmask=117,dmask=007,uid=1000,gid=46 0 0
# /dev/sda5
UUID=5E746197746172A7 /media/sda5 ntfs-3g defaults,fmask=113,dmask=002,uid=1000,gid=46 0 0
In this case sda2 is readable and writable to user with uid 1000 and members of the group with gid 46, and inaccessible to everyone else. sda5 is readable by everyone, but only writable by uid 1000 and gid 46.
Gutsy and newer should have the ntfs-3g driver readily available, for older releases, you'll need to install it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mo...irdPartyNTFS3G
