You need to check 3 things 1) Does your user belong to group 'users'? 2) What happens if you manually mount that partition with the command mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/share 3) Try running fsck on the partition and then remount it. If all the above fail, you should try on the ubuntu lists/irc channel/forums/lauchpad. -- Reserve your abuse for your true friends. -- Larry Wall in [email protected]
