In my case, I have to modify «/etc/PolicyKit/PolicyKit.conf» like this: config version=0.1 match user=fgr return result=yes/ /match /config Perhaps, it's a brutal choice but it's works as well. :) Cheers

WBR, flashkot Man that is frustrating. Still unable to mount the NTFS partitions on the removable disk. The wiki helped with the ext3 partitions, but I still do not understand why man hal was wrong on suggesting the following (3) scenarios: define_admin_auth group=wheel/ Should give members of the wheel group full access to all mounts, but it did not? match action=org.freedesktop.hal.storage.mount-removable match group=users return result=yes/ /match /match Should give group users (the default group GID 100) the ability to mount removable devices but it did not? match user=david return result=yes/ /match Should give me full access to mounting/unmounting, but it did not? The question then becomes why did the following work for ext3: match user=david match action=org.freedesktop.hal.storage.* return result=yes/ /match match action=hal-storage-mount-fixed-extra-options return result=yes / /match match action=hal-storage-mount-removable-extra-options return result=yes / /match /match Why in the world did this match user=david work when the one just above didn't? One of my goals in life is to avoid looking in /etc/hal and /etc/dbus-1 ... I'm failing miserably ;-) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

The reason seems to be that auto-mount autodetects NTFS partitions as using the ntfs driver, but in order to get full functionality, you need to use the ntfs-3g driver. Mounting as root, explicitly using the ntfs-3g driver, works. HTH, Dave Moore Yes, I think that is exactly what the problem is. I didn't want 'rw', all I wanted was read-only. So I just created a directory as a mount point and did 'mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb2 /mountpoint'. It worked just fine. I'll play around to find a way to get this (politely put 'dad-gum') hal/dbus/PolicyKit to do what a simple 'mount -t ntfs' had done for years -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
