On a Wheezy machine, when I plug in a vfat key, it automounts. When I do
it, permissions for device usb0 automatically change from root:root to
nobody:users. But on another machine, running Sid, plugging in the key
does not change permissions, and user can't access it.

I tried to do a chmod 777 on the interface, but it has no effect.
What is the best way to make a key accessible to user for rwx?
