User disk mounting

Hi - Using dolphin I (or any user) can click on an unmounted system disk (an
internal SATA drive, with a hard disk icon) and it is mounted without any
passwords with a single click. This is Fedora 12 x86-64.
I can't see why this should be enabled by default from the polkit
configuration:
xx:/home/jss:# pkaction --action-id
org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.filesystem-mount-system-internal --verbose
org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.filesystem-mount-system-internal:
description: Mount a system-internal device
message: Authentication is required to mount the device
vendor: The DeviceKit Project
vendor_url: http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/DeviceKit/
icon: drive-removable-media
implicit any: no
implicit inactive: no
implicit active: auth_admin_keep
xx:/home/jss:# pkaction --action-id
org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.filesystem-mount --verbose
org.freedesktop.devicekit.disks.filesystem-mount:
description: Mount a device
message: Authentication is required to mount the device
vendor: The DeviceKit Project
vendor_url: http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/DeviceKit/
icon: drive-removable-media
implicit any: no
implicit inactive: no
implicit active: yes
If it's an internal disk, I would have thought filesystem-mount-system-
internal was the appropriate option, but this is set to auth_admin_keep
which should pop up a dialog box asking for a password.
Is there another setting I should be looking at?
Thanks
Jeremy.
