Hi! I have a similar problem..
$ groups stw15 audio plugdev # ls -l /usr/bin/pmount -rwsr-xr-- 1 root plugdev 29280 2006-09-11 08:48 /usr/bin/pmount #ls -l /usr/bin/pumount -rwsr-xr-- 1 root plugdev 22316 2006-09-11 08:48 /usr/bin/pumount My udev rule: BUS=="usb", ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="sd**", RUN="/usr/bin/pmount --sync --umask 000 %k" In this way, the mount of a flash drive works, however, the pumount command don't works as is written below. $ ls /media cdrom cdrom0 floppy floppy0 sda1 sda6 sdb1 $ pumount -d /media/sdb1 checking whether /media/sdb1 is a mounted directory resolved mount point /media/sdb1 to device /dev/sdb1 resolved /dev/sdb1 to device /dev/sdb1 Error: device /dev/sdb1 was not mounted by you Changing the umask, or writting the rule without arguments, like "/usr/bin/pmount %k", the flash drive was not mounted. But, if i execute this pmount command (/usr/bin/pmount --sync --umask 000 /dev/sdb1) in a shell like a regular user instead of the udev rule, the events of mounting and umounting proceeds successfully! The output of this way, pmounting in a shell, just the main lines with arguments: spawnv(): executing /bin/mount '/bin/mount' '-t' 'udf' '-o' 'nosuid,nodev,user,sync,atime,noexec,uid=1003,gid=1003,umask=000,iocharset=utf8' '/dev/sdb1' '/media/sdb1' spawn(): /bin/mount terminated with status 32 spawnv(): executing /bin/mount '/bin/mount' '-t' 'udf' '-o' 'nosuid,nodev,user,sync,atime,noexec,uid=1003,gid=1003,umask=000' '/dev/sdb1' '/media/sdb1' spawn(): /bin/mount terminated with status 32 spawnv(): executing /bin/mount '/bin/mount' '-t' 'iso9660' '-o' 'nosuid,nodev,user,sync,atime,noexec,uid=1003,gid=1003,iocharset=utf8' '/dev/sdb1' '/media/sdb1' spawn(): /bin/mount terminated with status 32 spawnv(): executing /bin/mount '/bin/mount' '-t' 'iso9660' '-o' 'nosuid,nodev,user,sync,atime,noexec,uid=1003,gid=1003' '/dev/sdb1' '/media/sdb1' spawn(): /bin/mount terminated with status 32 spawnv(): executing /bin/mount '/bin/mount' '-t' 'vfat' '-o' 'nosuid,nodev,user,quiet,shortname=mixed,sync,atime,noexec,uid=1003,gid=1003,umask=000,iocharset=utf8' '/dev/sdb1' '/media/sdb1' How can I use the pumont in a removal script execute by a regular user in the plugdev group?
