Hi, using freebsd5.2-release I've set vfs.usermount=1 in sysctl.conf. Normal user get permission denied when trying to mount an ntfs permission (slice ars01), until root has mount and umount it at least once. See the following File permission on /dev/ar0s1 is 644 and owned by root:operator User ddais member of group dda, wheel & operator. A) Mounting as user dda: dda@work:~> mount_ntfs /dev/ar0s1 mnt/ntfs/ mount_ntfs: /dev/ar0s1: Operation not permitted Mounting was not permitted Changing to root: dda@work:~> su Password: ROOT@work:/home/dda# mount_ntfs /dev/ar0s1 mnt/ntfs Slice was mounted without problem, let's umount it, and change back to user dda. ROOT@work:/home/dda# umount mnt/ntfs ROOT@work:/home/dda# exit exit B) TRY AGAIN NOW AS USER DDA dda@work:~> mount_ntfs /dev/ar0s1 mnt/ntfs/ NOw it works?! Hmm...!? Any suggestions?! Thx
