The easiest way is to make the eject binary SUID root. (man chmod for more info) Note that making ANYTHING SUID root is generally a bad idea. But if you're more interested in ease of use than security per se, then it gets the job done. I've been doing that on a couple of my systems for over a year now and have yet to have anyone try to exploit it in any way. -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY!
