usbmount only mounts pendrive as "root:root"?
Hello!
So, after swithing one box from Fedora to Debian
Sarge, there's onw thing users would probably like, but I don't know
how to do: Fedora will mount pendrives automatically for you, with the
permissions of whoever is on the console. I tried usbmount, but it seems
to always mount as root. After the pendrive is plugged, this is how
/media looks like:
$ ll /media/
total 44K
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root adm 4 2005-06-09 22:30 usb -> usb0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 16K 1969-12-31 21:00 usb0
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 4.0K 2005-06-09 22:30 usb1
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 4.0K 2005-06-09 22:30 usb2
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 4.0K 2005-06-09 22:30 usb3
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 4.0K 2005-06-09 22:30 usb4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 4.0K 2005-06-09 22:30 usb5
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 4.0K 2005-06-09 22:30 usb6
drwxr-xr-x 2 root adm 4.0K 2005-06-09 22:30 usb7
I had changed the group in *all* /media/usb* directories to adm, just
to check if they'd go back to "root:root" when mounted, and indeed --
they do.
So, is there a simple way to get the same behavior from Fedora in
Sarge?
Thanks a lot!
J.
