CD Burner Permissions



Hello all,
I'll try to repost this now that I'm no longer munging my PGP state.
I've forgotten how I set my user accounts so they can burn CD's as
mortals.  I'm adding a new user, and these are the steps so far taken:
adduser jane
<snip> - normal account stuff.

From /etc/fstab:
/dev/scd0 /cdr iso9660 ro,defaults,users,noauto 0 0

ls -l /dev/scd0
brwxrwxrwx    1 root     cdrom     11,   0 Feb 11  2001 /dev/scd0

So - adduser jane cdrom

Completes normally, but still no permission to write to drive.  I seem
to remember that there are different /dev/ entries, one for reading and
one for writing, and I can't remember what the one for writing is so
that I can add poor jane to the correct group.  It seems to be
brainfarts all around for me lately.
Thanks in advance,
Steve
