I think you need to have at leas this:

chelcicky:~$ ll `which cdrecord`
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root cdrom 133 2006-01-07 13:43 /usr/bin/cdrecord
chelcicky:~$

Which makes cdrecord at least limited just to members of cdrom group (and
root).

Thanks for your reply :-) I believe that my cdrecord has the same permissions and everything works fine like this:

jose@sweety:~$ ll `which cdrecord`
-rwsr-xr-- 1 root cdrom 133 2006-01-07 13:43 /usr/bin/cdrecord*

My problem is that I'd like cdrecord not to have the SUID set (the 's' in '-rwsr-xr--' above). I'm not sure this is possible, but if it is and someone out there knows, I'd really appreciate it! I'm running testing (etch).
