CentOS - Aug 2007 - New server is not discovering USB drive attachment

Just built a Centos 5 system last night that will be a NAS server.

I have a bunch of notebook drives with information I want to populate 
the NAS with.

I am logged in as root.  I plug in the USB notebook drive device and 
nothing.

My notebook has no trouble with this device.  Obliviously I missed 
something in the install.

autofs is reported as running, so not that.

Obvious info is missing: /var/log/messages, output of "dmesg" ...

Nothing I can see in "dmesg"

in Messages, I fined:

Aug 22 11:46:44 onlo pcscd: winscard.c:219:SCardConnect() Reader E-Gate 
0 0 Not Found
Aug 22 11:46:44 onlo last message repeated 4 times


Could this be associated with this problem?
