Thanks Tomas,
I have set kern.usermount=1 now and added myself to the operator
group, but still get operation denied when trying to mount a cdrom.
Does the below look right?
Thank you
$ sysctl kern.usermount
kern.usermount=1
$ groups
laurence wheel operator
$ ls -l / | grep cdrom
drwxrwxr-x 2 root operator 512 Nov 8 14:29 cdrom
$ ls -l /dev/cd*
brwxrw---- 1 root operator 6, 0 Nov 8 14:13 /dev/cd0a

Surely /cdrom should be a symbolic link to /dev/cd0a?
ie:
ln -fs /dev/cd0a /cdrom

PS what command are you running that gives an operation denied?
