RE: [SLE] Mount & users

I seem to have a distant recollection that user <> users in the mount options bit in fstab, with the latter letting all users mount? On Sunday, October 01, 2000 8:42 AM, juergen.braukmann@ruhr-west.de [SMTP:juergen.braukmann@ruhr-west.de] wrote:

Either change the permissions of the mount command or use su1.

for the above suggestion check, the setting of PERMISSION_SECURITY in rc.config. If ot is set to "secure" or "paranoid", mount will be not useable as user. You can edit /etc/permissions.local in the style of permissions.* to allow the use of mount.
