Hi

I followed the handbook, sec, 18.5. USB Storage Devices:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/usb-disks.html

but still I get:

$ mount_msdosfs /dev/da0s1 mnt/
mount_msdosfs: /dev/da0s1: Operation not permitted
$ 

I added myself to the operator group,
and followed all the other steps:

$ id
uid=1001(mexas) gid=0(wheel) groups=0(wheel),5(operator)
$ tail -n2 /etc/devfs.conf
[localrules=5]
add path 'da*' mode 0660 group operator
$ sysctl vfs.usermount
vfs.usermount: 1
$ grep devfs /etc/rc.conf
devfs_system_ruleset="localrules"
$ 

What am I missing?

Thanks

Anton
