Never mind this one. I finally found it in the FAQ and got it to where
it could be mounted to a directory owned by the user, but I would like
to be able to  mount it to a directory owned by  root - "/sandisk", to
be precise. If that can't be done, I can do something else in the long
run,  like set  up a  directory  owned by  'nobody' and  just write  a
mod_perl interface  that would pull  them down and  help index/process
them. But that's a long way off.

If it  can be  done to  a root owned,  world writable  directory, that
would be preferable.

Thanks again
Lou
