There could be other settings that change it. E.g. I have in /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/90-default-privs.rules 'org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount-system': [ 'auth_admin', 'auth_admin', 'auth_admin_keep' ], check /etc/polkit-1/rules.d and /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d You can also simply create additional file to override these settings. > > - is udisks supposed to ignore the "nouser" setting in /etc/fstab > and just go by whatever polkit tell it? > > - do I need to reboot after changing > /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.udisks2.policy > You need to restart polkit daemon > - even if ROOT3 were not set to "nouser", why am I (non-root) > allowed to mount ROOT3 using udisksctl even after I set every > occurance of <allow_active> to auth_admin? > > Paul. > * > > > On Fri, Feb 13, 2015 at 12:24 AM, Andrei Borzenkov <arvidj...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > В Thu, 12 Feb 2015 11:59:40 -0600 > > Paul Novak <k9jen...@gmail.com> пишет: > > > > > I'm trying to track down what I think is a bug that > > > can be seen using the KDE device notifier (although > > > according to the KDE folks, the problem in either in > > > udisk or polkit (either a bug or misconfiguration). > > > > > > I'm just a user; I'm not a developer. > > > > > > Before I write a bug report, I'm asking for confirmation > > > that what I'm seeing is in fact a bug and not expected/ > > > desired behavior. > > > > > > I have verified this issue running LiveDVDs of > > > Kubuntu, Mint, and PCLinuxOS.
