In my /etc/sysctl.conf file I have the following: ------------------- # user mounts devices vfs.usermount=1 ------------------- In my /usr/local/etc/sudoers file I have the following: ------------------- # Defaults specification Defaults env_reset Defaults timestamp_timeout=0 Defaults tty_tickets Defaults requiretty Defaults passwd_timeout=1 # User privilege specification alex ALL=/sbin/umount,\ /sbin/mount_msdosfs ------------------- I have added user alex to the wheel group To mount the device as regular user (alex), I created a sub-directory in my home directory. In this example, my home directory is alex and the sub-directory is mnt_drive Execute the following to mount the drive...considering that /dev/da0 is the drive to mount. sudo mount_msdosfs /dev/da0 /usr/home/alex/mnt_drive Execute the following to un-mount the drive sudo umount /usr/home/alex/mnt_drive Hope it helps... -- Alexander FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE i386 _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
