I understand very well your frustration because my gnome desktop goes through periods where those things work, and then for some time they don't work, etc, ad infinitum. As much as I like the convenience of automounting as a luser, all of my bofh instincts cry out that lusers shouldn't even be allowed to log into my system, much less actually mount(!?!) a filesystem! This is one of those Windows/convenience versus unix/security things, I think, but I'm just an amateur bofh. What do you professional bofhs think?
