Re: ***Problem solved*** mount options noexec,nosuid,nodev



<brilliant red face of embarassment!>

Ok, problem solved...  Big pilot error....

Some-how, the following line managed to creep into my ~/.cshrc file:

	alias mount      mount -o nodev -o noexec -o nosuid

I can't remember when the last time was that I edited this file, and I can't imagine why I would have put this in, but obviously this is what causes my "problem".


If I specify an explicit path for /sbin/mount everything works just fine; it only fails when I say "mount ..." which lets the shell search for the command and apply the alias substitution.

I think I'll remove that line from .cshrc
