I am trying to use groisofs in a kornshell script called by cron to backup a user's files to my dvd burner. the script with growisofs works fine if run as root but when I try running it as a 'normal' users I get permission denied on the device. I went to fstab and on the /dev/dvdrecorder line added the wr option. What am I missing?
You have to change the permissions on /dev/dvdrecorder (where it is pointing to) directly, or better give the user the additional group "disk". Cheers -e -- Eberhard Moenkeberg (emoenke@gwdg.de, em@kki.org)
