yeah, i did have an input from jorg's find, it was relativly small, only a few lines, mostly password and Xserver stuff... i never knew they ran suid, you learn somethign every day.
i set the /dev/sg devices to be group owned by cdwriter simply because it is a scsi emulation.. its an atapi cdwriter so its not like someone will come along and add a scsi hard drive all of a sudden. i would maybe consider running cdrtools suid and set it to be owned by cdwriter group so that only they can use it.... i am settign up a linux from scratch system, and everywhere i read, suid is dangerous, so i figured this as an alternative. but about suid... if i run cdrtools suid, and a priveleged user runs mkisofs, and chooses to read directories they are not allowed to read... will it throw back an error? or save the iso image to a directory they dont have write priveledges in...to be honest i dont understand suid, i have been warned about it, so i stay away.
