Use the "user" option.

Put something like this in your /etc/fstab file:
/dev/sda /zip auto rw,user,noauto
^ ^ ^ ^

or whatever Where you auto-detect Read/write, allow
your ZIP disk want to mount filesystem, non-root to mount
device is the drive eg, dos/ext2 don't mount at boot
Hope this helps,
Chris.

1. run a non-root user's program from a non-root user
Hi Folks,
Here is the problem.
I have user A and user B (non-root users)
I need for user A to initiate a job as user B. How can this be done?
As you know, I can do this as root. I can start a process from root as
another user in the system (cron jobs come to my mind!) Is there a way
to do this for non-root users? I believe I need to be able to do
something like as user A
"su - B" without being prompted for password.
Appreciate suggestions in advance.
Pasha
BTW: I am using AIX 4.3.10
