Home partition mounted with 'noexec'
 
Hi!
I don't remember what i might have changed, but now, in my slackware 14.2 system, i cannot run programs from my home partition, receiving 'permission denied' error. I noticed my home partition is mounted with noexec option, though it is not set in fstab:

How should i resolve this? I would like to launch cli binaries and tor-browser or appimages from home partition.

Is it ok if i add 'exec' option into fstab?
Does it compromises the security?

Okey, i added 'exec'.

"users" implies "noexec", and you really don't want non-root users messing with /home anyway.

I'm pretty sure you want to remove the "users" option from your /etc/fstab file. From "man mount":
Code:
      users  Allow  any user to mount and to unmount the filesystem, even when some other
              ordinary user mounted it.  This option implies the options  noexec,  nosuid,
              and  nodev  (unless  overridden by subsequent options, as in the option line
              users,exec,dev,suid).
After removing option "users" (and remounting) your "exec" option will be back.

The reason you don't want "users" is that normal users shouldn't be mounting/unmounting /home. Only root should do that, and only at bootup/shutdown (in normal circumstances).
