[opensuse] Autofs mounting
Hi, I'm trying to give a daemon access to a USB-drive. Manually as root it works fine, but the daemon does not run as root, so the daemon has no rw-access to the drive. I googled and tried some of the suggestions, with no luck. What I did : My auto.master : +auto.master /mnt/vchanger /etc/auto.vchanger --timeout=30 My auto.vchanger, working OK as root : # /etc/auto.vchanger * -fstype=auto,rw :/dev/disk/by-uuid/& I tried this in auto.vchanger : * -fstype=auto,rw,uid=bacula :/dev/disk/by-uuid/& * -fstype=auto,rw,gid=bacula :/dev/disk/by-uuid/& * -fstype=auto,rw,uid=$UID :/dev/disk/by-uuid/& * -fstype=auto,rw,gid=$GID :/dev/disk/by-uuid/& * -fstype=auto,rw,gid=users :/dev/disk/by-uuid/& I always get an error when trying to access the drive (as root or myself, user bacula has no shell) : error: unrecognized mount option "gid=0" or missing value "gid=0" can be replaced with "uid=107", or "gid=110", depending on the auto.vchanger content. Those uid's and gid's do exist. After changes to auto.vcahnger, I restarted autofs (rcautofs restart). Anyone who can help me ? I'm working with OS 11.4, 32bit.

What file system is on the thumb drives? uid= and gid= mount option are only valid for fat and ntfs partitions. Philipp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hi Philipp, I formatted the RDX-cartridges with ext3 or ext4. I really do have a permission problem. When I try to access the drive as root, the drive mounts OK. Then when I chmod the mount-point to 777, the bacula-user has no problems accessing the drive. The mount-point is /mnt/vchanger/xxx where xxx is the drive's UUID.

Then there is no mount option to change the owner, i.e. the owner of the backup client can only access files and directories whose access rights allow it. Philipp -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
I just had automounting go out on an old system under 10.0. No reason it just did. I consulted the oldtimer of our local group and he found a method in fstab to fix it. usbfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs noauto,mode=0660 0 0 0 the key fix was the mode=0660 0 part of the line and the auto mount now works in all users.
