That would be the best solution (and not only for utab, but also for options parsing, userspace options, command line options used for helpers, etc.). It's better to have all the things in one library. Anyway, the change I did today allows to use "user" fstab mount option also for non-libmount external helper. It's already in my TODO list to write libmount patch for mount.cifs. Karel -- Karel Zak http://karelzak.blogspot.com
