Perhaps this is discussed somewhere, but so far I haven't found anything that helps. I have two SCSI CDROM drives (/dev/cd0 and /dev/cd1) and an IDE floppy drive. All of these drives are mountable and work flawlessly if I am logged in as root. Trying to mount any of them as any other login-id results in an "operation not permitted" message and failure. I have a /cdrom mount point that is matched with /dev/cd0 in /etc/fstab and says its file type is cd9660. The permissions on /dev/cd0 are 0555. Same for /cdrom. The owner of both is root:wheel. I already tried setting the permissions to 5555... no help. The odd thing is that I can successfully run KsCD using either drive as a non-root user and play music through my sound card. (Can't seem to make any other sound work, but that is a separate issue.)
I even tried creating a file in /usr/local/bin called mountcd that has just the line "mount /cdrom" in it, and setting the super user bit on the file. That works fine for root, but fails the same way for non-root users. Does anyone have a hint that will allow me to fix this problem? -Lyman _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
