mount ignores fstab, won't let me mount as a user

[clockworks]

Hi,

I have the following in my /etc/fstab:

/dev/sdb1 /media/IAUDIO vfat default,noauto,users 0 0

but when I try to mount it as a user, it fails saying I need to be super user:

[sti@mobile ~]$ mount /media/IAUDIO/
mount: must be superuser to use mount

If I "chmod u+s /bin/mount", I get the following error when mounting as a user:

[sti@mobile ~]$ mount /dev/sdb1 /media/IAUDIO/
mount: only root can do that

What is going on? Ugh, frustration.

Thanks for the help.

3 steps to resolve your problem:
1) make sure the user can read/write the device in question (in /dev)
2) make sure the user has 777 permission on the mount point
3) chmod s+u /bin/mount
