[OpenIndiana-discuss] Missing privileges in oi_151a8

[Gary Mills]

There was a recent series of messages posted here that had to do with
a failure to mount USB drives by the gnome window manager.
Apparently, this was the result of a missing privilege.

You can add privileges by modifying the manifest that's used to start
the process in question.  Here's an example, taken from one of the
existing manifests:

	<exec_method
		type='method'
		name='start'
		exec='/lib/svc/method/svc-sar %m'
		timeout_seconds='60'>
		<method_context>
			<method_credential
				user='sys'
				group='sys'
				privileges='basic,file_dac_write' />
		</method_context>
	</exec_method>

If this fixes the problem, please file a bug report or add to an
existing one with this information.
