Hi,

I have a working gnome-vfs and ntfs3g installation. From Gnome, I can mount and unmount my windows partitions with just a click.

Sounds good, but that's exactly the problem since I shouldn't have the permission to do so. My windows partitions (/dev/hdx) are owned by root:disk with 640 permission. My user account is not in the disk group.

I don't have any entry that controls these ntfs partitions in /etc/fstab. mount -t ntfs3g from command line denied the access (expected).

Where do I get the permission? I did not enable suid in ntfs3g. I don't think this is the default behaviour, but this installation is barely a week old.
