given that (as far as i can tell) programs like "cdrecord" and "cdparanoia" access the ATAPI cd drive through the SCSI device files /dev/sg<something>, wouldn't it make sense to add these device files to /etc/security/console.perms so that the single user would own these files as well and could run those programs directly?
i got tired of having to "su" just to run cdrecord and cdparanoia, so i added the lines <scsi>=/dev/sg[0-9] /dev/sg[0-9][0-9] ... <console> 0600 <scsi> 0600 root to the console.perms file and life is much better. was this an acceptable thing to do? was there a better way? is it worth suggesting this as an enhancement for the next release? rday -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
