From memory, you need to have "users" in the       line in /etc/fstab.              man mount says about the option "users":              users Allow every user to mount and unmount the filesystem. This        option implies the options noexec, nosuid, and nodev(unless        overridden by subsequent options, as in the option       line        users,exec,dev,suid).              In my experience, the word "users" is often the first of the comma-separated       list of options.              HTH,              Doug.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
