Hi folks, I am not sure, but when I want to mount a ntfs-filesystem using ntfs-3g, I always need to input the password of root. According to the manual, if ntfs-3g is setuid-root, it shall allow normal users to mount ntfs-files. So, I have rwsr-xr-x with owner root:root, which IMO should do the trick, but still asking for the password. However, I remember dark, there was something with "hardcoded in ntfs-3g", which does this no more let work. This was years ago and I only remember weak. Thus led me to the conclusion, that either I am doing something wrong, or the manual is wrong (and of course should be corrected then). Does someone know better or should I file a bugreport? Best regards Hans
