As someone at MacNN noted: This utility helps fix a problem in which "Error 192" prevents mounting of disk images. The utility is distributed... as a disk image.

I've already read of one person stuck in a catch-22 in this regard. Hopefully they'll think of something more clever...

Actually, I happened to run into this problem TODAY. It was a little frustrating, but if you just copy the app from a machine that can mount the image, then it will run on the machine that is unable to mount it.

This little utility saved my server today when I unwittingly hit the "Apply" button and made a simple permission change recursive... Ugh.

After a few days wrestling with the issue of not being able to mount the Repair Privileges 1.1 disk image, I decided to check the preferences in StuffIt Expander. Version 6.5.1 has an option "Keep mounted images in RAM".

I checked this option, dragged the Repair Privileges 1.1 image onto StuffIt Expander and it mounted. I was then able to run the Repair Privileges utility.

I can now mount disk images!

:)
