[wplug] permissions on /mnt/camera

[Russ Schneider]

I mount my digital camera as /mnt/camera but I'd like other users (namely 
my wife) to be able to get in that directory without giving out root 
privileges.

I wrote a script with sudo so that all my wife had to do to mount it was 
type in "camera" at the command line and the camera would mount, but I 
can't seem to chmod or chown /mnt/camera:

[root at dell mnt]# chown sugapablo:sugapablo /mnt/camera
chown: changing ownership of `/mnt/camera': Operation not permitted
[root at dell mnt]# chmod 777 camera
[root at dell mnt]# ls -l
total 36
drwxr--r--    3 root     root         8192 Dec 31  1969 camera/

Is there something about mounted drives I don't know about?

Also, I have know idea where Dec 31, 1969 comes from either.
