Try:

% cd /usr/ports
% make search key="CD"

On my system this lists:
xcd-1.6
xmcd-2.3

Personally, I use xcd which works great. It needed a minor patch to get
it to work with my IDE CDROM drive (I needed to specify "/dev/rwcd0c"
instead of "/dev/rscd0c" or similar) - after doing a "make patch" for
the port you can grep through the source (in the "work/xcd-1.6"
directory) to figure out which code you need to modify.

Of course, if you have a SCSI CDROM drive, it should work out of the
box.

Regards,
Tom
