You can't.
You have to be root to mount one of

It is about file permissions or USB key file permissions. It is *not* about

Tomas' answer points to the umask mount option. Since all current
reasonable methods for accessing an USB stick in FAT end up using the
mount system call, it is THE solution.

That would be
mount /dev/foo mnt -oumask=000
That works for an explicit value of "foo".
Maybe the problem is D.E. specific? I'm using MATE and thus Caja

The format of the /etc/cron.d/ files is the same format as the
/etc/crontab. Whatever lines you would put into /etc/crontab you
would simply put into a file in /etc/cron.d instead. No

I've a cron job run daily from /etc/crontab,
the entry looks like this:

My google foo seems to have deserted me completely. Could someone take

Is it possible for a directory to have lower permissions than the files it
contains? And could those who have permissions for the files, but not the
directory, gain access to the files?
My instinct says no.

I will try my best guess:
On our webserver-space it is quite common to leave directories without
read access, to prevent visitors from obtaining directory listings.

Barring any typos and stuff, the above should be correct, but if you
google for ‘linux file permissions’ you shall come up with clearer and
likely more reliable explanations.

Hi guys! Something is very weird or I didn't sleep enough last night. I am
puzzled. How can an ordinary user delete a file he has no write access?
See this example:
p...@montblanc:~$ cd /tmp/
p...@montblanc:/tmp$ mkdir test; cd test
p...@montblanc:/tmp/test$ sudo touch file_owned_by_root
