How do I specify that an fstab mount-point should be public? I want /mnt/windows to be accessible to normal users. I believe I am using ntfs-3g. If I set the /mnt/windows to 777 will it be publicly accessible without changing the permissions on the NTFS disk?

/dev/sdb4               /mnt/windows    ntfs            noatime         0 1
/dev/sdb5               /               ext4            noatime         0 1
UUID=5AA4-168D  /boot/efi       vfat    defaults        0       1

and

localhost my_computer # stat /mnt/windows/
