I have a CentOS 5.5 system that is dual-boot CentOS 5.5 and Windows XP w/SP3 formatted with NTFS (for the Windows partition, of course). I have installed fuse (ntfs-3g) to allow read/write access to the NTFS partition from CentOS.
No regular user has sudo.
What is the best way to limit the access a user logging into the CentOS from mangling or changing data in unwanted areas of the fuse-mounted NTFS partition?
I presume this would be somewhere in /etc/fstab, but what should the mount line say for at least write limitations?
Thanks.

I think that a proper combination of uid=, gid=, umask= for the mount options would do...
