Many thanks for the tip, and I will go and look there.  I will admit
that I was a bit nervous about poking around too much in the present
files as so many howtos and so on made a big deal about making your
own.  

Strange thing is that I finally got so fed up with this that just
decided to delete the symlinks and recreate them for what I needed.  I
figured that at least until the next boot I would have /dev/cdrom where
I needed it and cd players and so on would work.  What shocked me was
that they were still that way after reboot.  So now I am wondering if
udev is even setting this stuff?  I had made a rule in 010-local.rules
for my mp3 player, a USB mass storage device, and that has worked fine
from the moment I first restarted udev, even though nothing was
affecting the dvd and cdrom symlinks.  So, I knew that the rules were
being implemented, but the ones for cdrom and dvd were not doing what
they should.  It is all a bit confusing to me.

Thanks again,

Patrick
