Hello,
as a normal user, I can mount my cdrom, but I cannot eject it:
# eject /cdrom eject: unable to open `/dev/cdrom'
As root, I can eject the CDROM all right.
Furthermore, I just tracked the problem down: it is due to /dev/hdc's group ownership by 'disk'. Changing that to 'cdrom' seems to remedy the situation.
Other people also had the same problem, please take a look at
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2003/12/msg03445.html
So, the question is: why is /dev/hdc owned by 'disk' in Sarge? Does it have to be so for some reason? If not, I'd suggest to change that to 'cdrom' as it seems to help with ejecting...
best,
Leszek
