Try this:  

first turn on usermountability put 
vfs.usermount=1  
in your /etc/sysctl.conf

make sure that devfs lets your user access the dev node, by editing
/etc/devfs.conf
make sure your user owns the mountpoint as indicated in /etc/fstab

now you can mount it wih nautilus!  

the bottom line is that its no different than any other mount point
for nautilus?  im mounting a flash usb mem from gnome this way, and
its very handy.
