A non-root user by default cannot mount a device. Search through the mailing list archives (http://www.FreeBSD.org/search/) and I'm sure you'll find some solutions to that question. The 2 that come to mind right now (w/o looking) are either configuring 'sudo', or setting up AMD (auto-mount). -Chris > -jm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
