KDE will have a similar setting. I'll likely need the device nodes to be created in case there's an admin need. But the user on the system should not get access to any usb storage device. Hence the need to only disable the automount part of the process. A quick test of turning off haldaemon didn't prove promising. I noticed immediately that automounting CD's is disabled. That's something I want to keep working. -- * Stephen Berg * * sberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx * * http://iceberg.3c0x1.com * * Sinners can repent, * * But stupid is forever. * -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
