Thanks, Chuck.  I saw that dvd+rw-tools wasn't installed so I checked the make file and found that it depends on:
   cdrecord:${PORTSDIR}/sysutils/cdrtools \
   cdrdao:${PORTSDIR}/sysutils/cdrdao

So I set the uid-root on cdrecord, readcd and cdrdao.  It still doesn't find cd0.  I must have missed one.  I'm going to keep looking.

Thanks again, I was sure that was it.
