[Mazen S. Alzogbi]

Hi,
How can I grant myself (as a user and not root) the permission to 
mount/umount a cdrom?

Thanks,

Thanks,
Use SUDO, it is delivered through the ports:
/usr/ports/security/sudo
The example files in /usr/local/etc/sudoers gives you the information 
you want.

Cheers

and add the user to group wheel, adjust the permissions of /dev/acd0c
(FreeBSD 5.x -> /dev/acd0) and /dev/cdrom, if necessary. 

Running 5.x, make the permissions permanet in
/etc/devfs.conf:

permacd0 0555
