From a previous mail of yours I see that it has a linux file system, 
presumably ext2 or ext3. Then the permissions are stored in the file 
system on that drive. Just make a directory on that drive and change the 
permissions for the user in question. You didn't write where it is 
automounted, but if it was at /media/sdb1 the commands would be something 
like this:

sudo mkdir /media/sdb1/doug
sudo chown doug:doug /media/sdb1/doug

Now you can use that directory as user doug. Change user names and 
diretory names accordingly.
