hi, i need to know how to give regular users access to my harddrive (/dev/hdf) by editing this file. Ive done this b4 a while ago but have forgotten the syntax. I dont want to do it through some other method like editing /etc/fstab. THanks :D

Not in front of my linux box right now, but I think you need to set the mode to something like 0660.

I'm guessing you have /dev/hdf already, still guessing I think it should look something like:
Code:
REGISTER      ^hdf$ PERMISSIONS root.users 660


And of course you can change root.users 660 are the user/group and the priviliges. :!: you need to restart devfsd deamon.
