I thought I'd try having users mount an NTFS partition using fstab. root has no issues, users get this: Circe$ mount_fusefs: /dev/fuse on /home/vlad/ntfs: Operation not permitted (FUSE daemon requires privileges due to 'allow_other' option) The fstab entry looks like this: /dev/nda0p3 /home/vlad/ntfs fuse rw,noauto,allow_other,uid=1001,gid=1001,mountprog=/usr/local/bin/ntfs-3g 0 0 sysctl.conf: # Uncomment this to prevent users from seeing information about processes that # are being run under another UID. #security.bsd.see_other_uids=0 vfs.usermount=1 I tried this (in both /etc and /usr/local/etc): Circe$ cat /etc/fuse.conf user_allow_other I have no idea where to go next.
