Have you tried manually mounting with something like:

I don't use udisks, but I use pmount and (I think) it automatically
mounts with the noexec option. I have never had a reason to try to get
around this, so I also cannot speak to whether or not working around it
is functional.
Thanks for the suggestion. I hadn't tried that, though I had tried
pmount with the -e flag, which should set executable permissions.
Mounted as you suggest, the script is executable. :) It failed again,
but that was because I didn't have mtools installed, and was easy to
fix. Interesting that a manual mount worked where pmount and mount using
'noauto' in /etc/fstab didn't.
But I figure if you do it manually, and specify exec, if it still
doesn't work, then you at least then know that it is not specific to any
of these automounting functions you use.
:) I guess it proves that it is down to udisks/polkit. I'd still like to
know how I can control the options set by them, but at least your
suggestion allows me to do what I need. Thanks again.
Paul.
