Hi all.

This is a problem I've faced both on a XP/Ubuntu dual-boot and Vista/Ubuntu dual-boot systems. Both use Ubuntu 8.04.

I'm mounting my NTFS partition with read-write support in Ubuntu. Everything works great.

But when I boot to Windows, all files on the NTFS partiton are read-only! Windows takes a lot to start, and I usually apply read-write attirbutes again to the files by hand.

Anybody knows the right way of mounting the NTFS partition on ubuntu so in Windows files aren't marked read only?

Thank you in advance.
