/dev/cd0c /cd0 cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0

FreeBSD:/home/dunham 22% mount /cd0
cd9660: /dev/cd0c: Operation not permitted
FreeBSD:/home/dunham 23% su
su: kerberos: not in root's ACL.
Password:
su: /usr/games/fortune: No such file or directory
=== root@rider (/dev/ttyp3) /home/dunham 1 -> mount /cd0
=== root@rider (/dev/ttyp3) /home/dunham 2 -> ls /cd0
