Hi,
since Linus's changes to the 2.6.8.1 kernel cdrecord doesn't work
anymore when used by a non-root user even if its permissions are
set SUID root.
Does anybody know about patches to cdrecord and/or the kernel source
to make this possible again? I do need the recent kernel (currently
2.6.11).
No. But "the other" solutions works flawlessly (for me).
ssh root@localhost
It works - BUT I've to tell the root password to all users!
No.
You can use RSA/DSA keys. And with keys you also have the possiblity to restrict the commands users can invoke at "login"-time, so you COULD e.x. restrict a login with key XY to only be able to call cdrecord.
Keyword: command(="/usr/bin/cdrecord") in authorized_keys
But i don't know how "good/secure" this is, never used it myself.
