I'm running lenny (5.0.4); and trying to get USB flash drive mounting in a way that doesn't involve hand-adding every user to the plugdev group (we're running NIS).

I tried the pam_group approach, and id says the user is in the plugdev group, but I'm still getting a permissions error from DBus. Adding the exact user to the plugdev group on the local machine worked as far as the mounter.
