problem with mount (gui only)

[bes]

I have strange problem with using mount as ordinary user. All works fine in sysconsole. But when I tried to mount something and used gui emulators (xterm and other) I got error:

mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0s5 mnt
column: msdosfs: No such file or directory
column: line too long
column: line too long
.....................
<infinitely>
^C

Under root it works well. FreeBSD-CURRENT, WM is Openbox, no hald running. Can anyone suggest a smart idea?

Do you have a script in your PATH also called "mount"?

Check if /sbin/mount is called:

which mount
alias mount

Also try specifying the full path:

/sbin/mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0s5 mnt

nakal,

Thank you very much. I have shell alias

mount='mount | column -t'

Oh, I'm so forgetful. It's really unforgivable x(
