[plug] Ubuntu question - permission denied.

Dmitry,

Ahh, makes sense. Excellent work. To automate it so you don't have to enter
the command every reboot I'd recommend to script it on login (requires root
pass everytime or modification to sudoers), but better yet use AutoFS.
Before converting all my stuff to NFS I used it to map my shares
automatically.
