      I once spent several hours at work trying to mount a USB drive to red hat. I’ll keep fighting windows for now.

          Yeah. If that’s not one of the first things IT did when they got hired, then you need a new IT. You seriously can’t trust anyone to not plug a random USB into volatile infostructure.

          Also, they could do it to prevent theft of their proprietary code and other things that you’d probably need to sign a NDA to even see in the first place.

          I don’t think so; there was a procedure for it and we had root access. It just didn’t work according to the procedure, nor any of the ones I found online. If I remember correctly, it said to mount sda1 and that didn’t work. Another different machine worked with sdb0 or 1. Ended up having to plug a laptop in with a network cable and ftp the files.
