Is it the "done thing" in FreeBSD for normal users to mount CD-ROMs=20 in a local directory rather than /cdrom?=20 As a normal user all I get is this: localuser > mount /cdrom=20 cd9660: /dev/acd0c: Operation not permitted despite changing the permissions on both the CD-ROM device and /cdrom to 660 and ensuring the local user is in the relevant groups I can mount CD-ROMs in a directory owned by the normal user. I ask because in Linux, /cdrom is generally useable as a mount point by all users. It's not a problem, just wondering. For reference:=20 the relevant line in /etc/fstab: /dev/acd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 = 0 vfs.usermount is set to 1, and yes, I have read this page: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/disks.html#USER-FLOP= PYMOUNT S.Mazerski To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
