Missing permissions to write optical discs #327

Open probonopd opened 2 years ago

Missing permissions to write optical discs (CD-R/W, DVD+R/W, DVD-R/W, BluRay,...). The following works but only for the first optical disc writer in the system.

Is there a better way?

cat >> /etc/devfs.conf <<\EOF

# Allow users to write optical media

own     acd0    root:wheel
perm    acd0    0660

own     cd0     root:wheel
perm    cd0     0660

own     pass1   root:wheel
perm    pass1   0660

own     pass0   root:wheel

Personally I find it annoying that one has to "fiddle around" with stuff like this, rather than the permissions in FreeBSD being set up out of the box in a way that allows users to write optical discs.
