I want to give a particular user( say Tom) , comming through Telnet on a
 local Lan permissions to mount the Fat partitions as necessary  on a dual
 boot PC....
 I don't want em available all the time, so putting em in /etc/fstab is
 out...
 
 I have a script in the /root folder ---as below && a umount in the logout
 script file...
 
 if mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/vfat
    then
           echo -e "\nVfat  Partition /dev/hda1 mounted"
 else
           echo "\n Unable to mount vfat Partition"
 fi
 #----------------------------
 Made owner of file as root && group owner same as Tom,( with no write
 permission) given the file a chmod g+s stamp.
 
 However this does'nt work out....?
 It says something like only the root can do that....
 
 Any Suggestions  ...?
 
 Bye &&
Thanks in Advance
