Re: How to mount device as USER on Konsole window

Hi Ron,

Thanks for your advice.

Hereinbelow is /etc/fstab

LABEL=/      /          ext3    defaults        1 1
LABEL=/boot  /boot       ext3    defaults        1 2
none        /dev/pts     devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0
none        /proc        proc    defaults       0 0
none        /dev/shm     tmpfs   defaults        0 0
/dev/hda3    swap        swap    defaults        0 0
/dev/cdrom   /mnt/cdrom   udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom1  /mnt/cdrom1  udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0     /mnt/floppy  auto       noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0

If I want to allow "satimis"(user) to mount cdrom, cdrom1 and fd0
whether I have to make following changes

/dev/cdrom  /mnt/cdrom   udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,satimis,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom1 /mnt/cdrom1  udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,satimis,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/fd0    /mnt/floppy  auto       noauto,owner,satimis,kudzu 0 0

If I replace "satimis" with "user" whether all users can mount those
device?

Where shall I add "nosuid" and "noexec"?  What will be their difference
in function?

Kindly advise what "entry" you refer.  Whether the mounting command
issued?

Thanks in advance.
