For security reasons i have to block all USB mass storage ports.

I have try :

-------------------------------------------------------
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf - blacklist usb_storage
-------------------------------------------------------
# ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko
# mv /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko 
/root
-------------------------------------------------------
sudo rmmod usb_storage
sudo modprobe -r usb_storage
-------------------------------------------------------
None of this is working.

The only thing that is working is automount option. If i disable this ( 
in gconf ) it will not load USB auto start, but when you start nautilus 
you can still see "Verbatim USB storage" and you can access it.

How to block usb mass storage ?
