Add either umask=0000 or a uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0133,dmask=0022 to
the mount options field.

Alternatively (for the lazy or people who don't understand the
previous): download http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/winmac_fstab and run
it to add the drive to your /etc/fstab

In Breezy this will all be easier :)
