Hi

I read in the previous post about allowing users to mount cdrom and 
wanted to try it for myself
I did the follow :

added vfs.usermount=1 to /etc/sysctl.conf
changed the permissions on /dev/acd0 to include the user
restarted freebsd (It's amazing what a restart does for me sometimes)

but this happens:

Grant > mount /mnt/cdrom1
cd9660: /dev/acd1: Operation not permitted

I am working in Kde usings Kde's Konsole and have two cdroms on 
FreeBSD 5.2.1
Please help

Grant
