how to disable mass storage like pen drive usage in redhat linux or opensolaris? and is there is any way to check that mass storage device has been used in the computer like windows have.

like in the above link adding "nousb" to kernel booting options works. But I suppose he wants to disable only Mass Storage Devices and not USB in general so the first method pretty much does it.
