Hmm, most often the same users who should be able to burn cd's would also listen to CD's (users with console access). Perhaps we should have a 'console' group and make all devices physically attached to the system writable by this group (cdrom, cdrw, audio, usb, etc...)? And then the liveCD installer would default to putting new users in this group... Or, we should use PAM? Doesn't PAM has support for automagically know when user logged in to the physical machine and not from network? but this would probably be a later thing to do... But, if you choose to keep it 0666 then there's still no point at using setgid or setuid on cdrdao or other software, since the device will be writable for everyone anyhow! -- /Jonatan -=( http://kymatica.com )=- _______________________________________________ gobolinux-devel mailing list gobolinux-devel@lists.gobolinux.org http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-devel
