something like

$ dd if=/dev/acd0c of=copy_of_cd.iso bs=2048

will make an image of a CD, that can then be fed to burncd to create 
a copy of the CD.  That assumes it is a data (ISO) CD.  Music CDs 
require a different approach.

In the mailing list archives somewhere, although that isn't always 
the most convenient place to find things. ;)

I'm sure I've seen a tutorial on this somewhere, but I can't remember 
where.  http://www.freebsddiary.org/ is one place you might look in 
the future.
