Okay, I can use 'sudo' or such things. I have > even try to use amd with no success. Well tell us what problems you had. As it comes out of the box (on 2.2.8 at least), a simple package install of sudo and a few seconds editing the /usr/local/etc/sudoers file with visudo will have everybody able to execute something like "mount /cdrom" and "umount /cdrom" and the problem is solved.
