(or override it via /etc/polkit-default-privs.local butthis would not allow to fix it to one user) -- 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.

If I understand this correctly, this means that a local policy override shouldn't be necessary. I think that installing smb4k should be enough and that mounting and unmounting should work for a user without them having to know or enter the root password. -- 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.

I'm a user, who is unfortunately not able to write a java script hook. Thank you!
