groups does not show me as a member of cdrom. I did the following; janet:~# useradd rosef cdrom Which is what cdtools tells you to do when you attempt to access a restriced drive. I am also listed in gshadow and gshadow- the same as group and group- respectively. Further, groups lists me as a member of dip. There is no apparent difference between the way I am listed for dip and the way I am listed for cdrom in the group files. And, yes, my cdrom is hdc. I have 2 ide drives on the first ide channel and cdrom and ide tape on the second. I remember seeing this as the recomended configuration when I installed my tape drive. -- Frisco Rose "By any other name, I would smell the same" E.O.U.
