I have just installed ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I mounted my SOFTS(/dev/sda6), a NTFS partition by selecting it on nautilus. After that I openend the terminal and tried to change the permissions of a file. The command executed but the file permissions remained unchanged. I tried changing the permissions by using root privileges but that did not work either.

Went through exactly the same issue. This page perfectly solves the issue. pysdm is the solution. The GUI has all options that you can configure.

Modifying file ownerships might help? Invoke man chown in the terminal to see how it works!

  • you have to use the 'permissions" option in fstab, see the link I gave you.

  • @wangdw How are you suggesting the ownership should be changed. I recommend expanding this answer to include that information. Aug 22, 2012 at 8:47
