I have the following in my fstab:

/dev/hdb1   /mnt/windows   vfat   auto,users,gid=windows,umask=0007 0 0

and a group called "windows", which contains all the users that I want to  
be able to write to the Windows partition. I originally had this in RH7.3  
(8.0, 9, FC1) and it still works now in FC2, so it seems pretty future  
proof :)

Of course, you would have to change hdb1 to match whatever yours is, and  
remember to create a "windows" group with your username in it...
