Hello,

I'm using 11.3 KDE opensuse. My problem is, I can write on my windows drive as root user but not as normal user. Is there any way by which I can write on those drives as normal user?

The content of your file /etc/fuse.conf should be : user_allow_other and you will be able to write as user.

Google leads me to http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg360095.html Hmm. I don't have fuse-utils installed. Do you? However # zypper install fuse-utils Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... Package 'fuse' not found. Resolving package dependencies... Note: its not saying 'fuse-utils' not found. Odd. maybe some other repository .... but http://software.opensuse.org/search doesn't tell me where Maybe its not in use any more? As for the OP problem - yes permissions - permissions of the mount most likely. # mount /dev/sda1 on /windows/C type fuseblk (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096,default_permissions) # ls -ld /windows/C drwxr-xr-x 1 root users 8192 2005-05-02 12:17 /windows/C # ls -l /windows/C/boot.ini -rw-r--r-- 1 root users 211 2005-03-30 14:42 /windows/C/boot.ini -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

That's not it.

To what would you change it? And how? Chmod does not work on a windows ntfs-3g mount. Try yourself.

I have (11.3) mount options rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,blksize=4096,default_permissions.

What exactly would you change?

Any one or more of a number of things. Mostly I don't have all drives and partitions mount as root at boot, I have ",user," or ",users," in there and mount them as "me" when I need them. Which, with windows isn't often. Which is why I don't mount that partition as a matter of course -that's ",noauto,". I can also set the ownership at mount time with ",uid=anton," and ",gid=users," then set the file and directory masks to allow user and group read and write. In this case I don't need the explicit ",noexec,nosuid,nodev,". As a matter of course I can also have my mount points access set so that non-root users can get in and edit. Yes, chmod doens't work on a ntfs mounted fs. That's why I would do all this BEFORE the mount. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Use the uid= and gid= options to set the user and group as for vfat partitions.

I'm late to this thread, but fwiw all my W$ partitions are mounted from fstab simply with "user, defaults" options using the ntfs-3g driver, with the mount point having "users" group write permissions - no problem writing to these partitions as a normal user. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

You are not left in darrk, you stay in dark !
