OK, I've got a tricky question. I have a plain-old-vanilla hfs partition on one of my drives. For the last year, it's mounted *just fine* under SuSE. I've never been able to give anybody other than root write permissions to it, but since all I really use it for is storing mp3's (and the occasional Linux-MacOS file transfer), all anybody needs is read permissions. About a week ago, I had a whopper of a system crash, for reasons that I still haven't figured out. I was forced to do a hard-reboot. Since then, nobody except for root has been able to access my hfs partition. Anybody else gets a "permission denied" message. I've tried fiddling with /etc/fstab, I've tried chgrp and chown and chmod (both on the mount-point-directory and directly on the /dev/ object), nothing works. I'm practically tearing my beard out in frustration... it's probably something really obvious that's right in front of my face... any ideas? -SB -- "As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life -- so I became a scientist.
