Package: davfs2
Version: 1.4.5-1
Severity: normal
*** Please type your report below this line ***
Hi,
I just started to use davfs2 with the following line in my /etc/fstab:
https://myremoteserver/home/user/ /media/mount_point davfs user,noauto 0 0
but when I try to mount the device as a normal user the following error is
displayed:
/sbin/mount.davfs: program is not setuid root
It can be solved by setting the SUID bit with
chmod u+s /usr/sbin/mount.davfs (/sbin/mount.davfs is a symbolic link)
and adding the current user to the davfs2 group.
Maybe it would be useful to add the SUID bit by default and run a
postinst script that asks to add the normal user(s) to davfs2 group.
What do you think?
Thanks.
