It's for security reasons. If you have only trusted users witch use your system set SUID to mount (as root) with the command 'chmod +s /bin/mount' so that a user can run mount with root privileges.

The problem with this approach is that the next time YAST is run, it will reset the permissions. The right way to do it is to add to /etc/permissions.local the following two lines: /bin/mount root.root 4755 /bin/umount root.root 4755 Save the file and then tun SuSEconfig Avi Íßêïò wrote:

Even if you do this users can only mount drives root allowed them to mount (by adding the appropriate entries to /etc/fstab). For CD-ROM and Floppy those entries should look similar to this: /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto rw,noauto,user,sync 0 0 /dev/hdc /mnt/cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto,mode=0444,user 0 0 The important option here is `user'.

Better yet:
# groupadd mount
# chown root.mount /bin/mount
# chmod 4750 /bin/mount
Add __trusted__ users to group mount. (Either edit /etc/group by hand or
use usermod with the -G option; latter is perferred).
(You must also tell SuSEconfig not to check permissions, or change the
relevant line in the relevant /etc/permissions* file).
