Hello!

I'm trying to get fusermount working as a normal user but it seems as if
this doesn't work for me. I did the following:

1. create an empty directory in my home dir:
mkdir ~/abcd

2. fusermount it with:

 fusermount /home/leidola/abcd/ [FULL_PATH_TO_FUSE_DIST]/example/fusexmp
-d

This results in:

fusermount: failed to set capabilities: Operation not permitted
fusermount: failed to restore capabilities: Operation not permitted
fusermount: failed to set capabilities: Operation not permitted

and I'm back in prompt.

This DOES work as root.

Output:

fusermount: failed to set capabilities: Operation not permitted
fusermount: failed to restore capabilities: Operation not permitted

But the program isn't returning. I can access the files in ~/abcd

After CTRL^C :
/usr/bin/fusermount: failed to set capabilities: Operation not permitted
/usr/bin/fusermount: failed to restore capabilities: Operation not
permitted

Some background information:

-rwsr-sr-x    1 root     root        51537 2004-08-14 22:58
/usr/bin/fusermount

uname -sr sais:  Linux 2.6.7-ck5

I'm running Debian/Sarge (testing)

Thanks for any hints,

Ciao,

Olaf Leidinger
