i think it's sort of stupid question, but after the latest kernel update i observed the following behavior. i don't imply that the said update is to blame. It's quite possible that i don't know what i'm talking about.
so: 1. usera mounts the DVD 2. usera issues "vobcopy" 3. vobcopy failes with no obvious error. 4. root remounts the dvd 5. issues same vobcopy 6. disk gets copied I do know that i copied a dozen or so of my DVDs ( kids just love to use them as flying disks ) and i used "usera", not root for this purposes. I also know that i didn't make any configuration changes between "then" and "now" ===================== [az@server media]$ cat /etc/fstab # # /etc/fstab <skip> /dev/cardreader/CF /media/cardreader/CF auto defaults,users,noauto,rw 0 0 /dev/cardreader/MS /media/cardreader/MS auto defaults,users,noauto,rw 0 0 /dev/cardreader/SM /media/cardreader/SM auto defaults,users,noauto,rw 0 0 /dev/dvd /media/dvd auto defaults,users,noauto,rw 0 0 [az@server media]$ cd /media/ [az@server media]$ ls -l total 4 drwxrwxrwx 2 root root 4096 Jul 3 19:24 dvd [az@server media]$ mount /dev/dvd [az@server media]$ mount <skip> /dev/sr0 on /media/dvd type udf (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) [az@server media]$ ls -l ./ total 2 dr-xr-xr-x 4 4294967295 4294967295 136 Oct 29 23:43 dvd ===================== I'm not sure i ever saw the permissions set like this. Any ideas are welcome. Oh, and i almost forgot, (still "blaming" the latest kernel update) out of nowhere a regular user now can _write_ to dvd... ha?
