Package: pmount
Version: 0.9.13-1
Severity: normal
Mounting a luks volume using pmount as a normal user works. But
unfortunately the owner of the mounted partition is set to root:root.
So it is only possible to read files. Writing is not possible.
mount:
/dev/mapper/_dev_sdb1 on /media/sdb1 type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
ll /media:
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2006-08-25 02:59 sdb1
Cheers,
Michael

ext3 is an Unix file system which respects file owners and modes.
These are enforced by the kernel, and file systems like ext3 do not
support override options like 'uid' (as e.g. vfat does, which does not
have a concept of file owners).
Apart from the fact that permissions cannot be changed automatically
anyway, I do not have any intention to do so either. If you need to
use your USB device on many different computers with varying user IDs,
please use something like VFAT or UDF.
Thanks,
Martin
