I am trying to mount my digital camera to download some pics I just took. When I do this as root, it works AOK & I got the pics off. However, when I changed my fstab file to (supposedly) allow regular users to mount that directory, the mount command fails: [wam@kabini1, ~, 11:33:11am] 530 % mount /media/flash/ mount_msdosfs: /dev/da0s1: Operation not permitted [wam@kabini1, ~, 11:35:58am] 530 % relevant lines from my fstab file: /dev/da0s1 /media/flash msdosfs rw,sync,noauto,longnames,-Lru_RU.UTF-8,users 0 0 # /dev/da0s1 /media/flash msdosfs rw,sync,noauto,longnames,-Lru_RU.UTF-8 0 0 FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE-p9 Not a huge issue, since I can get 'er done as root, but I don't see why this shouldn't be feasible as a regular user .... TIA & have a nice, snowy (here) day ;-) .... -- William A.
