Re: [ubuntu-in] Disable USB port for Mass Storage
You can do one trick ( just remove the usb storage drivers ) ( even root will not be able to use the usb storage without some process [3] ) see usb-storage drives loads from here [1] [1] ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko Move it to somewhere else[2] ...may be at /root [2] mv /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko /root [3] mv /root/usb-storage.ko /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/storage then run modprob usb-storage -- */ Jatin Khatri Web www.khatrijatin.co.nr http://www.khatrijatin.co.nr/ www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Jatin http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Jatin Phone (+91) 98250 20393 Save Paper, Save Environment.** /*(Plant at least one tree in your life and nurture it !!!)*/ -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

Yep, This has got me interested as well. As Arun asked, do other usb devices work after this. Devices like usb keyboards, modems, printers, etc.? Other devices shall work. Mouse and keyboard use usbhid, USB cameras and printers shall use uhci_hcd or ehci_hcd, modems shall use usb_serial. Benefits of using modular kernel instead of monolithic :) -Nishant -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
