(Probably) Bad idea. $ ls -l /dev/hda brw-rw---- 1 root disk 3, 0 Mar 14 2002 /dev/hda Your unprivledged user can now extract sensitive info from the drive (even root.root 600 stuff like /etc/shadow), and change anything (like say, your password). You can keep this if you trust yourself to never make a typo... I'd suggest adding the user to group CDROM, and (assuming /dev/hdc is your CD): chgrp cdrom /dev/hdc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
