I would also recommend setting up pam to handle this for you using the pam_group stuff. Whoever logs in on the console (via tty or gdm) should probably get access to all sorts of physical devices, like floppy, audio devices, cd/dvd drives, and so on. That way, if you ssh into your machine, you don't accidentally start affecting local devices remotely (you'd have to explicitly go through root to do so). mrc -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
