Mostly correct, but most Linux distros do not include the needed features that
would allow to set these privileges.
Cdrecord needs on Solaris:
privs=file_dac_read,sys_devices,proc_lock_memory,proc_priocntl,net_privaddr
It would need the same on Linux and in addition the permission to send _any_
SCSI commands.
Readcd needs: privs=file_dac_read,sys_devices,net_privaddr
Cdda2wav needs: privs=file_dac_read,sys_devices,proc_priocntl,net_privaddr
Once there is support in more than a turkish Linux distro, I will add support
for the Linux fine grained privileges.
So what gives on Linux:
file_dac_read Permission to open any device file
sys_devices Permission to send anc SCSI command
proc_lock_memory Lock into memory
proc_priocntl Increase priority
net_privaddr Allow ports < 1024, needed for RSCSI
