Error opening '/dev/sdc1': Permission denied

Please check '/dev/sdc1' and the ntfs-3g binary permissions,
and the mounting user ID. More explanation is provided at

and I can't find anything on this error.

Hi,

With your device plugged in, and being root, what are the outputs of :

Hi,


This is not what I asked. Please copy and paste my request.

This cannot be accessed by an unprivileged user.
From an older post :

This cannot either be accessed by an unprivileged user.
This makes at least two conditions (and a possible third one), not matching what is requested in http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-faq/#useroption

Hi,

I`ve the same problems so far.

I did all of the following points:

1. ntfs-3g is compiled with integrated FUSE support 2. the ntfs-3g binary is at least version 1.2506 3. the ntfs-3g binary is set to setuid-root 4. the user has access right to the volume 5. the user has access right to the mount point

The output of ls -l /dev/sdd1 Mountpoint /bin/ntfs-3g is:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 164409 2012-01-08 18:35 /bin/ntfs-3g
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 49 2012-01-09 18:19 /dev/sdd1

What have I todo?

I have the same message as topicstarter when trying to mount ntfs disk as user from nautilus or just with udisk:



I've compiled ntfs-3g with internal fuse support. Made mountpoint owned by my user. Added my user to disk group to have access to /dev/sdX. After all tis steps i can easily mount disks by "mount" without root privileges, but udisk still cant get acces to a disk device. It only gets mounted when i chown /dev/sdb5 to my user instead of root. But this ownership gets back to root after reboot.
So I'd like to know is it possible to do what i want, or have I to look for another ways to do it?

In addition:

Hi,


I generally just plug in my external disks, and they mount automatically.
