Hi all, I found a Red Hat briefing on securing RHEL (thank you Steve Grubb) that states to prevent the use of a USB storage device, create a file in /etc/modprobe.d (in my case following his example) no-usb. Inside the file place a line: install usb-storage /bin/true I rebooted and tested it. Before the entry my blackberry storage would mount. After the entry, it no longer mounts. Paul M.
