How to fix script to umount device without password?












0















I have added a file named: umountscript to /etc/sudoers.d/ with this directive:



xikri ALL=(root) NOPASSWD:/home/x/umountscript.sh


inside umountscript.sh I have this code:



umount /mnt/devicex


But when I run the script I get this message:



umount: /mnt/devicex: umount failed: Operation not permitted


Do I need to do something additional to make this work?
