Hello,

I'm able to mount a partition as a user if I have
kern.usermount=1
#
ls -l /dev/wd2*
brw-rw----  1 root  operator    0,   0 May  7 21:54 /dev/wd2a
# ls -l /mnt
drwxrwxr-x   2 myuser  operator  512 May  7 22:38 extpart
and
#
grep operator /etc/group
operator:*:5:root,myuser

However, I'm unable to
mount the partition if the owner of /mnt/extpart is root although that mount
point is rwx by the group operator and myuser belongs to that group.
# ls -l
/mnt
drwxrwxr-x   2 root  operator  512 May  7 22:38 extpart

I assume that
kern.usermount allows a partition to be mounted only if the mount point is
owned by a user and the group owner is not considered.
I have search for a
variable kern.groupmount but there is not such thing.

So my question is:
Is
it possible to allow a group to mount partitions (or usb keys, cdrom) ?

Thank
you
