fuse for Debian --------------- Please note that to be able to mount any filesystems based on FUSE, you have to load fuse module first. If you're using 2.6.14 or newer kernels, fuse should be already included and you don't need to build it yourself. Simply try `modprobe fuse`. To use fusermount, you must be able to execute this command as a root, so you have to be a member of the group which has proper permissions. fusermount binary comes with 4750 permission and root:fuse owners, so to able to use fusermount, you should give access to user fenio like so: adduser fenio fuse Now fenio would need to log off and on again for the group membership to come into effect. Then, he can use the fusermount as expected. Please avoid working as root just to be able to use fusermount. The above procedure is not complicated and Just Works (tm), and it's a lot safer! If you still want to use it as a root you can remove suid bit from /usr/bin/fusermount binary. Use dpkg-statoverride for that. Otherwise your changes will be overwritten every time during upgrade of fuse-utils. -- Bartosz Fenski , Fri, 25 Dec 2004 16:56:10 +0200
