Mounting an NTFS partition as a user was set-up and working properly. the partition is ON MY HARDDISK. a lot of what i'm reading about the problem seems to be associated with usb sticks (??)
upgraded (i'm running wheezy) now i get this : Unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block devices using the external FUSE library. Either mount the volume as root, or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated FUSE support and make it setuid root. Please see more information at http://tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-faq/#unprivileged so there is a very long thread under bug reports about this problem in conjunction with a usb drive or stick. and at the end of it all I still don't have a solution to the problem. from the web page nprivileged block device mounts work only if all the below requirements are met: ntfs-3g is compiled with integrated FUSE support it's not showing up as a module. says integrated, i've long forgotten how to check to see if something's integrated into the kernel at this point. the ntfs-3g binary is at least version 1.2506 i'm not sure, here's the debian package version : 1:2012.1.15AR.5-2.1 the ntfs-3g binary is set to setuid-root well i didn't do that. i guess i should, but why is it i don't think that's actually going to fix my problem. let me go try that. nope - doesn't fix the problem. the user has access right to the volume yep. the user has access right to the mount point yep. happy to follow a link to the solution Thanks, Brian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
