for arguments sake, thats more or less the same type of setup i have at home except with sdc0 as 660... i'm not 100% sure if there is a secondary dev device which is used.. but one thing which might help in debugging the problem is to set your cd writing program suid root. I wouldn't recommend leaving it there permanently, but atleast then you can see if the issue is deeper down in the system. im no security expert, but i do know that 99.9% of the time, dont be tempted by suid root :) -- Adam McDaniel Infrastructure Technology Consultant M-Tech Mercury Information Technology, Inc.
