I do this too, but checking devices for mounts are resource itensive.
So you can write a script which check all 5 seconds (like Winsuck)
whether there is a CD mounted. and if yes, it looks in the root for the
file "autorun.inf". If it is found it read the contents and execute it.
The contents of such files are:
[autorun]
OPEN=autorun.bat
ICON=pics/run_me.ico
OK, OPEN must not be an executable and can be a HTML file or something
else which use a mime.types entry for execution.
I hope this helps...
Since I have allready done this, there is a tool to get the CD-ID. So
you can catch it and test it agains a whitlist provided by yourself and
only CD's listed in this Whitelist can autorun automaticaly.
If there is more interest, maybe I can update my horrible script to use
Xdialog for userfriendly adding of new CD-ID's
But I will not do the job, IF no one is interested
Please note, that I am coding grafical interfaces using (X)dialog for
existing tools (like xset, xmodmap, ...) but for users not using the
munsters of KDE and GNOME...
And sorry, because lake of money, I have currently no [EMAIL PROTECTED] and
my website is down...
