Another option, if you want to have user rights to mounting, is to add suid at the end. defaults,user,exec,suid Anders On Monday 06 August 2001 01:34, John Scott wrote:
That's exactly what it was. I forgot that mounting "defaults,user,exec" automatically gives you nosuid. I deleted user,exec and now I'm fine. That fixed several problems. Thanks.

I have a problem with suid programs. First it was vmware. It must run suid root. My user account can't run it because it says "VMware must be run suid root." I verified that it is. ls -l /usr/bin/vmware yields: rwsr-sr-x root root /usr/bin/vmware
Then I tried using sudo to perform some other operations and I got the error: "Sorry, sudo must be run suid root." I verified that it is suid as
well.
What could cause this?
