Hello Dante,
I must be confused. I know about the different types of filesystems that can be made and mounted on the Linux VFS, but doesn't Wine allow you to specify in the ./wine/wine.conf the filesystem type?
In Windows NT for example, the user can assign permissions in a similar way that Linux allows. the same is true for Windows 2000 and I suspect for Windows XP as well.
So this is really related to wine and how it interacts with the psuedo filesystem. Is this correct?
Cheers, Lonnie

Hello Again All,
I just had another thought and was wondering if someone was working on the NTFS filesystem for Wine?
I am guessing that this is what is being used in the Windows2000 and Windows XP as well, right?
I believe at least in 2k, you had an option, but this is a moot point since filesystem layer code is outside the realm of wine .. this is done by the host operating system. There is a ntfs fs project for linux : http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/
