This is for display ":0" on tty7. If you have a second login on display 
":1" (tty8) the lines would be:
:0 0600 /dev/cdrom:/dev/cdrom1:/dev/cdrom2:/dev/cdrom3
:1 0600 /dev/cdrom:/dev/cdrom1:/dev/cdrom2:/dev/cdrom3
But that means they use the device exclusively. Better is:
:0 0660 /dev/cdrom:/dev/cdrom1:/dev/cdrom2:/dev/cdrom3
:1 0660 /dev/cdrom:/dev/cdrom1:/dev/cdrom2:/dev/cdrom3
So they share the access to the device. (If it is a sound device: hold 
yer horses...)
