Assuming, for the moment, that you have a mount point created and described
in FSTAB, I'll take a stab at how to tell Linux to mount the drive for a
particular person. You'll probably need to specify "user, noauto" in your
entry in FSTAB to permit ANY user to mount/unmount that drive and to prevent
it from being mounted whenver Linux starts.
As for HOW to tell Linux to do it when a particular person logs in, I'd have
to *guess* that it would be in their home shell script, typically .bashrc,
or perhaps .bash_profile for RedHat (you don't specify which version of
Linux you have, so I'm going by what I know.)
I'm really still somewhat "wet behind the ears" when it comes to Linux, so
I'm somewhat guessing here. :-)
