Hello, Everyone :) I have a new, bizarre development to my dilemma: when I checked /dev/cdrom, "root" was the owner and the group. When I checked /dev/scd0, I was the owner and "disk" was the group. When I changed "steve" to "root" as the owner of /dev/scd0, I didn't have any problems mounting anymore. But when I logged out and logged back in, I was the owner of /dev/scd0 again :( I then removed myself as a member of "disk", made "root" the owner of /dev/scd0, logged out and then back in again, and I was the owner of /dev/scd0! (I also burned ANOTHER copy of the same cd, and I was not allowed to mount it) I reinstalled the version of Xcdroast that Red Hat shipped with Red Hat 9, which has no regular user mode, just to be sure something wasn't wrong there. Well, that's all I have for now. Looking forward to being the benefactor of your collective wisdom :) Steven P. Ulrick
