Hi I must be doing something dumb here but I can't get this to work.
trying to mount cd as regular user
before trying anything:

%mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom
mount_cd9660: Operation not permitted
  su'd
tim# sysctl -w vfs.usermount=1
vfs.usermount: 0 -> 1
  exit to normal user (tim)
%mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom
mount_cd9660: Operation not permitted
%ls -l /
drwxr-xr-x   2 root  wheel      512 Oct 20 16:32 cdrom
   logged in as tim su to root type:
tim# chown tim /cdrom    get 0 exit status
%ls -l /
drwxr-xr-x   2 tim   wheel      512 Oct 20 16:32 cdrom 
  then
%mount_cd9660 /dev/acd0c /cdrom
%mount_cd9660: Operation not permitted  
    
   What gives?  Thanks,

						Tim
