Hi,
 my home machine runs Redhat FC3, and I have a couple of external 
disks connected via usb2. One is FAT32, which I could read and 
write ok, and the other has multiple ntfs volumes. I've added the 
ntfs drivers from flathat, and can now read the ntfs volumes ok 
at home, which is all the access I need. The trouble is I can't 
read them when I "ssh -Y" from work. I used to be able to access 
the FAT32 disk from work, but no more. The ntfs one has only just 
been added. I suspect the new 'hal' hotplug system has changed 
things. Can anyone give tell me what I need to change to restore 
my access, or point me in the right direction if I'm barking up 
the wrong tree?

 A couple of lines from /etc/fstab are below...
/dev/sdb1	/media/usbdisk	vfat	
pamconsole,exec,noauto,iocharset=utf8,fscontext=system_u:object_r
:removable_t,managed 0 0
/dev/sda4	/media/CS-F		ntfs	
pamconsole,exec,noauto,fscontext=system_u:object_r:removable_t,ma
naged 0 0

 Thanks,
  Jim Deakin--
