Automatic mounting has nothing to do with servers or the type of machine I am working on. My laptop is not a server, however I don't need any automount feature. Who says that I want to have immediate access to the content of a CD-ROM or USB stick after insertion/plugin? Who says I want everybody currently logged in on my desktop machine to have access to my CD-ROM after insertion of the CD? Remember, Linux is a multi-user system. Sometimes I just plug my USB stick in to avoid loosing the stick (they are almost too small nowadays ;-)) - then it's mounted, a window pops up, etc. Really annoying! If somebody wants to have all those "features", that's fine for me. But I must be able to turn it off easily! > [...] > for usb stuff, manual mounting is nice is the mount point is > easy to find, what is not the case for now (AFAIK). so make > it simple or keep the usb automounting :-) You're mixing two problems! Automounting and having persistent mount points are related topics, but not identical. http://portal.suse.com/sdb/en/2005/05/dkukawka_hal_mountpoints.html Cheers, Th. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
