I can now share ONE bookmarks file between Netscape running
on M$ and Firefox running on Linux.

I could not write to /mnt/msdos/bookmarks.html from user
ccashion. I searched the man pages for chmod and mount and
found "-o umask=0".

Before and After...

Before did not work:
         mount -t msdos /dev/hda5 /mnt/msdos
After does work:
         mount -t msdos -o umask=0 /dev/hda5 /mnt/msdos

Tnx,
Charles

(now to conquer printing)
