 |
|
Hi,
I want to mount devices as user, like gvfs (gio mount).
But it doesn't matter what I did, I won't get the rights to do so.
First I tried to acquire rights via visudo.
/etc/sudoers ...
| Code: | %wheel ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /bin/mount
%wheel ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /bin/umount |
| Code: | [~] grep mm /etc/group
adm:x:4:root,adm,daemon,mm
disk:x:6:root,adm,mm
wheel:x:10:root,mm
audio:x:18:mm
cdrom:x:19:mm
video:x:27:root,mm
cdrw:x:80:mm
usb:x:85:mm
users:x:100:mm
systemd-journal:x:245:mm
libvirt:x:1000:mm
mm:x:1001:
|
This didn't work so I tried to set rights in /etc/sudoers.d/mm ...
| Code: | mm ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /bin/mount
mm ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /bin/umount |
This didn't work neither.
So I tried to acquire rights via polkit.
/etc/polkit-1/rules.d/10-udisks.rules ...
| Code: | /* https://wiki.archlinux.de/title/Laufwerk_als_User_mounten */
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount-system" && subject.isInGroup("wheel") ||
action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount" && subject.isInGroup("wheel") ||
action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.encrypted-unlock-system" && subject.isInGroup("wheel") ||
action.id == "org.freedesktop.udisks2.encrypted-unlock" && subject.isInGroup("wheel") )
{
return polkit.Result.YES;
}
});
|
Again, this didn't work.
Every thing I tried leads to using sudo and even then I have to inseart the password.
At one point I installed gnome-base/gvfs, but even then I had no rights to mount devices.
I wasn't even able to use the trashcan cause of missing $XDG_DATA_HOME.
/home/mm/.bash_profile ...
| Code: | | export XDG_DATA_HOME="$HOME/.local.share" |
Didn't changed a thing, so I deinstalled gvfs.
I am confused now and don't know how to proceed.
It can't be that hard, maybe I am missing something.
My goal is creating some bash scripts and mount/umount devices via dmenu.
I run with systemd and have not installed consolekit, cause of some incompatibility on shutdown and reboot.

What is the exact problem that you're seeing?
Being prompted for a password or the ioctl failing due to insufficient privileges? Are you using the whole path /bin/mount as specified in sudoers?
The polkit rule you have only affects udisks2 so it won't let you mount with /bin/mount.
If you're running systemd, you don't need consolekit, the functionality is part of systemd.

| Code: | [~] mount /dev/sdc1 usb/
mount: nur „root“ kann dies tun
[~, ERR:1] /bin/mount /dev/sdc1 usb/
mount: nur „root“ kann dies tun
[~, ERR:1] |
Translation is: root only can do this.
When using the same commands with sudo I get prompted for the password.
| Code: | [~] sudo /bin/mount /dev/sdc1 usb/
Passwort:
[~]

This is correct. The device needs to be in fstab with a fixed mount point to allow a regular user to do this, flagged with "user".

This implies that sudoers is (still) set up wrong. What is your
and we need to figure out why sudo doesn't think you fall under the bucket you created...

| Code: | [~] id
uid=1000(mm) gid=1001(mm) Gruppen=1001(mm),4(adm),6(disk),10(wheel),18(audio),19(cdrom),27(video),80(cdrw),85(usb),100(users),245(systemd-journal),1000(libvirt) |
I had the same problem with reboot/shutdown when editing /etc/sudoers,
so I added rights into /etc/sudoers.d/mm without the use of visudo. |

This works on debian stretch, for the "mygroup" system group, and without sudo :
| Code: | # cat /etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/55-storage.pkla
[Storage Permissions]
Identity=unix-group:mygroup
Action=org.freedesktop.udisks2.filesystem-mount-other-seat
ResultAny=yes |
Then, the mount command is :
| Code: | | $ udisksctl mount -b /dev/sdb1 --no-user-interaction |
I don't know if this can work as is on Gentoo. |
