fstab:
LABEL="Shared" /home/howard/Shared/ ntfs permissions,rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,uid=howard,gid=howard,allow_other,noatime,fmask=033,dmask=022 0 2
Mount with:
mount LABEL="Shared"
mount reports:
/dev/sda3 on /home/howard/Shared type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,blksize=4096)
Note "permissions" option was not honored, and instead "default_permissions" appears. (Also blksize=4096
is being added without my request.) Why does the "permissions" option get changed to "default_permissions"?
I've tried both ntfs and ntfs-3g mount types. They both return with a "fuseblk" mount type.
The permissions option allows each file's owner, group, and ugo_rwx permissions to be set independently. With default_permissions you can only set these one time for all files in the filesystem, and you can't individual set each file's user, group and permissions.

mount
(using fstab) is performed with root privileges / sudo or not. (This isn't as stupid as it sounds because it is specifically possible for ntfs-3g to be setuid-root).
