Hello I created the following mountpoint directories under /mnt name(user/group)device (user/group) floppy (root/floppy) /dev/fd0(root/floppy) cdrom (root/cdrom)/dev/scd0 (root/cdrom) burner (root/cdrom)/dev/scd1

That works fine. The only problem is, after that the /mnt/cdrom dir's ownerships will be (root/root) and thus inaccessible by members of the cdrom group. If I unmount it, everything is back to normal... How do I allow a group to access a mountpoint when the device is mounted? man mount
