tlug: vfat under Linux

[Jonathan Byrne - 3Web <jq@example.com>]

Currently, the owner for everything on my W95 VFAT volume, when mounter
under Linux, is root. However, I'd like to be able to change this.
Attempting to do a chown results in the message "operation not permitted."
Are vfat volumes mounted read-only or something, even though the file
permissions do show as rwx for owner?

TIA,

Jonathan Byrne
