https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=209647 ------- Comment #2 from mskibbe@novell.com 2006-10-06 01:17 MST ------- i can reproduce this. a sdb article( http://de.opensuse.org/SDB:Verwenden_des_Kryptofilesystems ) say that for manually mounting with mount an entry in /etc/fstab is required. part of the sdb article: [...] Wer Bedenken bei dem oben erwähnten automatischen Verfahren verspührt, wird wohl eher versucht sein, das verschlüsselte Dateisystem von Hand zu mounten. Dieses trifft aber zunächst auf das Problem, dass das Kommando mount nur durch den Benutzer root ausführbar ist. Man kann dies aber umgehen, in dem man auf die Erstellung der Datei /etc/cryptotab verzichtet und dafür für das entsprechende Dateisystem einen Eintrag in der Datei /etc/fstab vornimmt, wie weiter unten beschrieben.

Of course one cannot mount a partition in /etc/cryptotab as normal user. For any partition to be able to mount as normal user the partition needs to be in /etc/fstab this is current functionality of mount command. If the user wants to be able to mount the partition the way to go is to make an entry in /etc/fstab (YaST2 does this if you activate the option "Do not mount at system startup" in fstab options) that has the "mount by user" option set. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
