Permissions problem with ntfs-3g

I swear, this worked at one point. :-/

Slack 12.0, 2.6.21.5, ntfs-3g 1.2506, NTFS partition.

When trying to mount as user, I get the following error:

ntfs-3g-mount: mount failed: Operation not permitted
User doesn't have privilege to mount. For more information
please see: »ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivileged
I have made the changes described in the link and set up a udev rule for fuse with 666 permissions.


This is my personal laptop, so top-secret security is not a requirement. I passed on adding a fuse group and setting privileges that way.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

If you are using the integrated FUSE support, ntfs-3g has to be setuid root. You can also mount ntfs-3g filesystems via fusermount (which is also setuid root).

Yes, and I made that change as described in the link above.

Mounting as root works, but not as user.

rw, user set in fstab
