This sounds more like an issue with your directory permissions then with the fstab. The fstab entry would look something like:
/dev/hda1    /foo    ext3   noatime   0 0

But, as I said, once you have the filesystem mounted take a look at the permissions you have set on the directory. Make sure they are liberal enough for all users to read/write to the filesystem.
