A user can be a member of other groups besides their primary group. If my username is 'david' and my primary group is 'david', I can still be a member of groups audio, fuse, cdrom, adm, teacher, student, etc. I haven't run into this particular problem because we don't much use USB drives on our ltsp network, but that's my interpretation of this thread. db ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
