OK, I looked at the usermount source and it's looking for the "pamconsole" option. Could you try putting that option on any devices you want to be user-mountable and see if it works? I think this is really dumb, and I'm tempted to patch it so it checks for the "user" option as well, but this is a workaround in the meantime. -- Christopher Cramer Executive Director, DAPAC "There are only two kinds of politics....
