If you're running something that scans the CDROM drive regularly (like xmcd), you can keep these messages down by keeping a disk in the drive, or by closing the offending program when you're not using it. Short of that, the solutions are the usual for syslog messages: either change syslog.conf to exclude the whole class of messages, or modify the system source to not generate the message. > My system is > MOTHERBOARD - ASUS P2B-S w/Adaptec U2W-SCSI > CPU - Intel Celeron/Mendocino 400MHz, 66MHz/128K@400MHz > CDROM DRIVE - Toshiba 32X IDE (6402B) You didn't mention the most important bit of information: the version of FreeBSD. [e.g., the output of 'uname -v'] In this case, though, none of that matters. Good luck.
