The vast majority suggested downloading "sudo" to set this up. I will
be checking into that.

A few others sent me a program that has been sent to the list before, so
I won't repost the program. I've tried these programs, but I keep
running across an error: "mount: Can't load cdfs module" This error is
still baffling me.

One other person suggested setting the setuid and setgid bits so that
anyone could use them. I tried this, and got the "mount: Can't load
cdfs module" message also.

If anyone else has seen, and been able to resolve, that type of error,
I'd like to find out how to fix it. The CD mounts just fine as root,
but it doesn't like to load up as a user.

Thanks for all your help!
