I have a fstab entry in 12.04 LTS
ip-address:/filename mountpoint nfs
noauto,users,rw,hard,intr
Having this entry in the previous LTS version would allow
any user to mount the network file system, however when a
user tries to mount the file system with 12.04 they receive
an error message telling them they must be root to mount the
file system.
I checked the fstab man pages and it looked like users
should be user so I changed this and rebooted but a regular
user still can't mount the file system. Does anyone know
what I need to change to get this working with 12.04. I
really would like normal users to be able to mount and
umount the nfs file systems.
Thank you
Linda
