F16: Update causes backup drives to be unmountable, authorization issue

Running 3.3.7-1.fc16.x86_64 pretty much flawlessly until a few days ago.

Four drives: SSD holds OS, regular HD holds 'Home', 2 HDs backup home automatically (daily). Have not gotten around to setting up backups to automount.

After update a few days ago, try to mount backups as normal user and OS refuses saying need authorization.

Please advise. Thanks.

V.
