Yes, look for anything that says "cdrom" on it and add: , MODE="0660" to the end of those lines. Yes, that's a comma, space, then MODE="0660" (including the quotes). For example, the line that used to read KERNEL=="sr[0-9]*", SYMLINK+="cdrom cdrom-%k" should now read KERNEL=="sr[0-9]*", SYMLINK+="cdrom cdrom-%k", MODE="0660" And the line that read KERNEL=="hd[a-z]", BUS=="ide", SYSFS{removable}=="1", SYSFS{device/media}=="cdrom", SYMLINK+="cdrom cdrom-%k" should now read KERNEL=="hd[a-z]", BUS=="ide", SYSFS{removable}=="1", SYSFS{device/media}=="cdrom", SYMLINK+="cdrom cdrom-%k", MODE="0660" (those last two lines may wrap in this message, but they're one, big line). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Senior Systems Engineer rstevens@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - - VitalStream, Inc. http://www.vitalstream.com - - - - Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
