Ok, this is what i went through.  It seems to work, but for historical reasons, 
just in case others have this issue.  

At the client, cat /etc/fstab, gives

/dev/scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 /tmp/drives/Flashdisk auto rw,noatime 0 0
/dev/scsi/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc /tmp/drives/My_Floppy auto rw,noatime 0 0

But ...  ls /tmp/drives/Flashdisk returns nothing, same for My_Floppy.

hostname returns ws206 which is correct.  I also added -a as an option to 
LTSPFSD_OPTIONS, but this did not have seem to have any effect either initially.

After logging into the client, I get still the icons, but ... opening them 
still shows the system drive, not the usb flash drive.

Even though I am using Fedora, under the Debian section, I edited 
/etc/udev/rules.d/99-fuse.rules to be
KERNEL="fuse", NAME="%k", MODE="0666",OWNER="root" GROUP="fuse"

Then, did rmmod fuse ; modprobe fuse

Also had to reset the permissions on /usr/bin/fusermount via chmod 4755 
fusermount.

and the usb device was found.  Rebooted the thin client and it is still found.  
 This is probably opening up a huge security issue, but 0660 doesn't seem to 
work.  I use ldap for authentication, and .. everything was working, just not 
now.  BUT ... remember I added the "-a" option.  If I now remove it,  I can't 
access the drives.  

Now, I am not sure exactly how many of the above are required, but the changes 
made are at least sufficient to get it working for tomorrow.  I do know that I 
checked the permissions on fusermount before starting any of this and reset it 
initially.  Oh well, at least it is working again.

Sincerely,
Dave Hopkins
