|    User can mount nfs f/s, can't umount it.    |

      From: mds@bogus.nodomain.nowhere              I've been mounting one Linux host on another across the LAN forever,       and umounting same, always as plain user.                     In Slack 15, I can mount another host via nfs but I can't umount it.               enoch% mount /mnt/bogus               enoch% umount /mnt/bogus        umount.nfs: You are not permitted to unmount /mnt/bogus              I have to become root to umount it.                     /etc/fstab: Same problem with either of these               bogus:/ /mnt/bogus nfs noauto,user,rw,hard,intr 0 0               bogus:/ /mnt/bogus nfs noauto,users,rw,hard,intr 0 0              mount(8) manpage:               Non-superuser mounts               Normally, only the superuser can mount filesystems. However,        when fstab contains the user option on a line, anybody can        mount the corresponding filesystem.        .....        Only the user that mounted a filesystem can unmount it        again. If any user should be able to unmount it, then use users        instead of user in the fstab line.              I don't see anything in manpaages for nfs(5), mount.nfs(8), fstab(5),       umount(8) that helps.              What has changed in 15? How do I revert to former behavior?                     --       Mike Spencer Nova Scotia, Canada              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
