USB flash problem

Hi,
Root account can mount my flash drive, but regular users can't do it. Error message shows that mount: must be superuser to use mount.
Below is my /etc/fstab for usb flash. By the way, is this related to coldplug/hotplug? I have put coldplug in the boot.
/dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdrive vfat user,noauto,umask=0 0 0
Thanks for your time

Substitute user by users in the correspondig fstab line.

It doesn't work to put users instead of user in /etc/fstab. Any suggestion.

What command did you try, to mount the usbdrive?
"mount /dev/sda1" ?

mount /mnt/usbdrive but the error message showed that mount: must be superuser to use mount.
This command works in superuser, not regular user.
