you know, the fstab file has one option that alows normal users to mount and unmount "things"
and "things" can include nfs mounts.
this option is defined per mount point.
man fstab and read about "user" and "users" (the s changes who can unmount it later)

STOREBACKUPMOUNT(1)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       STOREBACKUPMOUNT(1)

NAME
storeBackupMount.pl - runs storeBackup backing up to an nfs mount SYNOPSIS
storeBackupMount.pl -c configFile [-s server] [-l logFile] [-d] [-p pathToStoreBackup] [-k killTime] [-m] mountPoints... DESCRIPTION
This script does the following: - checks an nfs server with ping - mounts that server via a list of mount points - starts storeBackup (with a config file) - umounts that server OPTIONS
--server, -s name or ip address of the nfs server default is localhost --configFile, -c configuration file for storeBackup. if option 'logFile' is set in the configration file, that log file is read online, if it is different from -l --logFile, -l logFile for this process. default is STDOUT. you can log into the same logfile as storeBackup --debug, -d generate some debug messages --pathStbu, -p path to storeBackup.pl --killTime -k time until storeBackup.pl will be killed. default is 365 days. the time range has to be specified in format 'dhms', e.g. 10d4h means 10 days and 4 hours --keepExistingMounts, -m if a mount already exists, do not umount after running storeBackup mountPoints List of mount points needed to perform the backup. This must be a list of paths which have to be defined in /etc/fstab. - if you add 'ro,' or 'rw,' to the beginning of a mount point, you can overwrite that option set in /etc/fstab example: ro,/filesSystemToRead will mount /fileSystemToRead read only, even if the corresponding entry in /etc/fstab mounts it read write only root is allowed to use this feature! EXIT STATUS
0 -> everything is ok 1 -> error from storeBackup 2 -> error from storeBackupMount 3 -> error from both programs COPYRIGHT
