Openbox + Thunar + USB + Permissions

Hello,

I cannot seem to solve permission issues associated with mounting a USB key with Thunar in Openbox. First up, I am part of the storage group:
$ group daniel

lp wheel network video audio optical storage users

My ~/.xinitrc is:

#!/bin/sh
#
# ~/.xinitrc
#
exec dbus-launch openbox-session

I've also included ck-launch-session for the automount option, but that didn't help either.

Yet even with this setup, I still see the following permissions when I insert my USB key:
$ ls -ld /dev/sbd*

brw-rw---- 1 root storage ... /dev/sdb

So at this point I'm not sure what else I can do to successfully mount my USB key. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals... except the weasel.
