You should never put yourself in group disk. This gives you raw rw
access

OK, sorry for not responding sooner. Turns out I wasn't looking at the symlink
to hdc, which was being changed. Thanks for all your help though.

Anyone?
I don't know why people keep using that funny
and complicated notation for chmod. The command
takes octal. Do this:
chmod 666 /dev/cdrom
ls -l /dev/cdrom
Then, if /dev/cdrom is a symlink, follow with
an ls -l
when I chmod g+rw /dev/cdrom, nothing changes. How can I get this
to work right? Anyone?
I think the right way is add users to 'cdrom' group. You can achieve this by
typing 'adduser username cdrom', where username is... well, your username ;-)
Don't change the cdrom permissions.
Thanks,
Derek

The right way to do is probably to let the group unchanged and to
put yourself in the disk group.
You should never put yourself in group disk
