Fedoristas in the crowd, I am trying to find a tool that allows me to
- automount usb devices when they are plugged in (via udev/hal) - would be nice to support removable devices - trigger an associated script on mount - all on a headless server! There is no udev/hal automounter that works on headless servers currently shipping on Fedora. Ivman is packaged, but not shipping currently (dead upstream, very cumbersome config). Working with the lvman config files is _not_ fun, and not modular at all - if several school server pacakges want different things, it'll be a mess. I have found an alternative that I like more, usbmount, which seems to work, is trivial to configure, provides the subset of Ivman that I need, and makes it simple for other packages to drop hook scripts into place via /etc/usbmount/mount.d . It doesn't have an active maintainer though. So I need some help :-) and it's not too complex. Option one - point me to something that works and is maintained -- if you know of a good reliable tool that I missed, I want to know. Can you help me configure it for this task? Option two - help me package & tweak usbmount for F7 and F9. The codebase is *tiny*, we can carry it. Option three - you are very keen on wrangling ivman's complexity and baroque xml. Grand! Let's teach it to do /etc/ivman/conf.d/ :-) Option four: anyone with a better plan? I'll probably start chipping away at #2 tomorrow... cheers, m -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
