Not entirely sure what to do about this one. I have a harddrive mounted through my fstab, but when I browse to it, all the folders appear as files, and I cannot open them.
 
Change the permissions for the mount point. You need to set it up so that the directory that it is mounted in (such as /mnt/wind) is both readable and writeable by all users, not just root. That should fix it. I don't know if it is the proper way, but I just did it on mine and it worked.
