[K12OSN] User access to local usb on FC5 + K12LTSP4.2 = imaginary files

[Jim Christiansen]

Hi Jim,

A super busy time for you.  Congratulations to you and your team on the new 
4.2.

Here is what I get:

[k at christiansens ~]$ id
uid=502(k) gid=503(k) groups=100(users),102(fuse),503(k)
[k at christiansens ~]$

=====================================================
still sounds like a group issue to me.

If the user isn't  part of the 'fuse' group, then the usb stick won't really 
be mounted.
But, the mount point is still there.  SO, if you copy anything to it, it'll 
actually be copied to your ~/Drives/mountpoint folder.  It'll never copy to 
the actual usb stick.

Pick one of the users that isn't working, and pop open a terminal session 
and run 'id' and see what groups the user is part of.

I'm guessing you won't see 'fuse' there.
