Noted with thanks

I only expect to allow 'User-A', not all users, to
burn CD. I can

# chmod 660 /dev/acd1

then all users can burn CD.

User-A is alrady allowed to burn CD with

$ su
password: (root password)

What I expect to change is to allow User-A
$ su
password : using his own password instead of 'root
password'

number?

TIA
