All right, but why does gnus try to change the permissions?
The command 'ls -l /mnt' shows clearly that everybody can read and write
onto the /mnt/windows directory:

drwxrwxrwx  30 root    root    16384 gen  1  1970 windows/

. Do you have any suggestion of how to work the problem out?
Cheers,
Rodolfo
