Thank you for the advice. I found a solution to this problem by applying 
the following commands

*sudo chown -R root:users /home/ben2/Public/shares
sudo chmod -R ug=rwx,o=rx /home/ben2/Public/shares

*And the line I added to*  /etc/fstab*looks like*

/dev/sdb5/ /home/ben2/Public/shares ext4 auto noatime 0 0

*Everything is good, Have a nice weekend*

*

O.k time to call for help again.
I just added a secondary hard drive to my desktop running Ubuntu 12.04 
and I would like to mount the drive a boot time

I modified */etc/fstab* and the drive is mounted but for some reason I 
cant get control over the content, I cant modify files or create 
directories in it.

This is the line I added
*UUID=4f07995e-21bb-468d-8aaa-282510936bc3 
/home/ben2/Public/shares       ext4    defaults        0       0*

I had prebiously add it with the following syntax
*/dev/sdb5/ /home/ben2/Public/shares ext4  auto  noatime 0 0**
*
with the two lines the drive is mounted at boot time but it doesn't 
allow me add content to it. I will appreciate all advice.

Thank you
