No. You need to uncomment line 9 in /etc/fuse.conf so that allow_user
will work in your fstab (from not-to-be relied on memory - it still
won't allow a non-root user to umount the device).
This is the line you need to uncomment:-
#user_allow_other
I had already uncommented that line, but it made no difference. I
couldn't see that I had to restart any service. I didn't reboot.
In which case I'd "recommend":-
*1.* uncommenting the user_allow_other line in /etc/fuse.conf
*2.* changing the fstab line to:-
LABEL=WinBackup /media/WinBackup ntfs-3g
uid=1000,gid=1000,permissions,auto,noatime 0 0
*3.* check that you are a member of the "disk" group (as a "user":-
groups |grep disk
if you aren't, become one (as "root")[*1]:-
gpasswd -a $YourUsername disk
[*1] "groups" won't show your changed group membership until after
you've logged out, and logged back in. You can use the following if you
need to double-check:-
grep disk /etc/group
OK, I tried all that and it makes no difference. With either line in
fstab there are no messages in syslog from fuse/ntfs-3g about that
partition, and I have to mount it manually. We're you expecting it to
auto-mount?
