 From mount man page:
-a     Mount all filesystems (of the given types) mentioned in fstab.


BTW, it looks pretty wrong what you have given 'mount /dev/hda1 
/mnt/windows -t ntfs -r -o umask=0222,uid=sesso,gid=root'  . Is that 
in the /etc/fstab file?

The fstab file needs a line like

/dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs umask=0222,uid=sesso,gid=root,ro
