mounting permissions

I am trying to find out whether a non root user can mount/unmount a filesystem/device like cdrom,NFS share,local FS.

Re: mounting permissions

Yes, although sudo can be used to grant that ability to non-root users.
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.

Re: mounting permissions

By default, must have root UID to mount/umount filesystems.

sudo is a great package for this. Can be very specific as to what can be mounted and umounted
