Mounting using NTFS-3G

ok, Here is my fstab

# 
# /etc/fstab: static file system information
#
# <file system>        <dir>         <type>    <options>          <dump> <pass>
none                   /dev/pts      devpts    defaults            0      0
none                   /dev/shm      tmpfs     defaults            0      0

#/dev/cdrom             /media/cd   auto    ro,user,noauto,unhide   0      0
#/dev/dvd               /media/dvd  auto    ro,user,noauto,unhide   0      0
#/dev/fd0               /media/fl   auto    user,noauto             0      0
/dev/sdb1       /home/lucian/HDD2   ntfs-3g gid=1000,uid=1000,umask=0022    0      0

/dev/sda1 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/sda3 / ext3 defaults 0 1
/dev/sda4 /home ext3 defaults 0 1

As you can see I followed the NTFS-3G wiki to the T, but when i try using mount /dev/sdb1 it says "mount: only root can mount /dev/sdb1 on /home/lucian/HDD2

What is going on?

Re: Mounting using NTFS-3G

It's telling you right there. You need to be root to mount devices.

Re: Mounting using NTFS-3G

If you "man fstab" or "man mount" you'll see that the "user" option should be what you need. No garantee from my side though...
