It works for me, so I'm taking a guess.
I suspect you remounted the drive logged on as root using the
command you first quoted.
"mount /dev/hda2 /home/robert/storage -t vfat"
which seems to assign user and group of root ignoring what is
in /etc/fstab
instead try just
"mount /dev/hda2"
or
"mount /h
Apologies - I'm working to 9.30pm tomorrow night.

Do I get special treatment if I show up, seeing as it's my 30th birthday on

Nominate and establish people in these positions.
Possibly discuss how CLUG and

What's wrong with ``id''?
$ id
uid=1000(kinetik) gid=1000(kinetik) groups=1000(kinetik), 0(wheel)

I have now spoken to both heads of both the Maths and the Computer
Science departments.
My boss the head of the IT dept has also agreed to the same arrangement
as last time for internet bandwidth.
My apologies for taking so long, I have had many other things on my
plate.

nothing...it's a preference thing ("ls -land ~" has fewer characters to
type). My solution relies that you own your own home directory, but I've
never seen a con

Good Morning All
I agree with Michael about the need for a formal committee and the
need for some formal rules.
In my view the committee needs to be larger than the one Michael
suggests. Add officers for "New Members", "Education - Software" and
"Education - Linux" that means nine people, plu

On _all_ recent redhats it seems to be the default and the annoying thing

Thanks Gareth,
Checked/etc/passwd and my uid is 500
I tried the following lines in fstab but still the same (no user write
rights)
/dev/hda2 /home/robert/storage vfat uid=500,gid=500,umask=007 0 0
/dev/hda2 /home/robert/storage vfat rw,user,noauto 0 0 0
/dev/hda2 /home/robert/storage vfat defaul
Chances are that they aren't. Have a look in /etc/passwd and see what the UID
is for your regular user. Or, alternatively, just use the other option 'user'
in /etc/fstab. Options like defaults,user,noauto are probably a good idea.
Cheers,
Gareth
ps. as far as login managers go, there might be a
/dev/hda2 /home/robert/storage vfatuid=500,gid=500,umask=007 0 0
in the fstab file got the partition mounted OK but still no user write
access.
How do I know if these uid's are correct?
Any more ideas?
