Bug description:
Binary package hint: davfs2
Just upgraded to 9.10 karmic today. When I try to mount a webDAV
partition as a non-root user, I get
/sbin/mount.davfs: / is the home directory of user kernoops.
You can't mount into another users home directory
This worked in 9.04 jaunty
my fstab for the partition is
https://hostname_here.edu /media/dav davfs rw,noauto,user 0 0
mount /media/dav produces this error
my davfs2.conf contains
dav_group davfs2
use_locks 0
man mount.davfs2 reads:
When mounted by an ordinary user, the mount point must not lie
within the home directory of another user.
but kernoops seems like a strange user with a home directory of root.
Can this directory be changed or can mount.davfs be fixed?
