David, Here is the way Debian installs cdrecord -rws--x--- 1 root cdrom 177k Apr 9 2002 /usr/bin/cdrecord I am the only user on my system that belongs to the cdrom group, so I am the only non root user who can burn cds. You can set the same permissions for cdrdao, and the same owner and group. The easy way, check out the --reference option in man chmod. Then you have complete control over who can and who can not use cdrdao as well as cdreord. Bob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
