Hi all,
I have been using freebsd for my web/database/music server for a while and
it has performed flawlessly. good good! However recently I installed freebsd
on my desktop too. I can do the things I want to, it just seems that i need
to be root to do a lot of things. If I didnt have root, I
I have used vfs.usermount=1 to allow users to mount the cdrom in a dir in
thier home dir. What is the most proper and secure method of doing so. If
possible without the use of sudo or chmod +s.
Thanks

What is the correct way of starting kdm at boot? I have tried echo
/usr/local/bin/kdm /etc/rc.local , but this causes the system to hang.
kdm works fine if executed on a root shell. Someone told me to do a wait 5
kdm, but i see this as a bodge.
Thanks

It appears that the mount that I cant unmount was not actually the cdrom, but
my remote home dir which is a samba share on another freebsd box.
bash-2.05b$ mount /home/edd/cdrom
bash-2.05b$ umount /home/edd/cdrom
bash-2.05b$ mount /home/edd/rhome
bash-2.05b$ umount /home/edd/rhome
umount:
Hi there. I think i may have discovered a bug in free bsd 5.2-RELEASE, it
may be in earlier versions too, but I have not tried it (maybe someone
running 4.x could try it)
I have made an fstab entry and nsmbrc file for a smb share. vfs.usermount is
set to 1.
A normal user (me in this case (edd))
Can anyone suggest a decent tv card that will work under freebsd in the uk?
