+title: DVD Burning, Funky UID?
+---
+
+<p>
+I've been doing backups with <a href='http://www.tcpipinfo.org/'>Alonzo's (osiekhan)</a> <acronym title='Digital Video Disc'>DVD</acronym> burner. It's <em>really</em> nice to have 4 gigs of space, and I haven't coastered anything yet, but there's one minor (and annoying) snafu. Check out the permissions on <samp>/mnt/dvd</samp>:

+I've been sifting around the <code>mount</code> and <code>fstab</code> man pages and trying various options. No combination of <code>uid=</code>, <code>gid=</code>, or <code>umask=</code> seems to give me anything that's perusable by anyone other than root. Ah well, minor price to pay for having that much space at my finger tips.
