Ok this is my sequence,
I put a cd on the drive, then close it. It never automounts. So I click (double click) on the cd icon that is always on the desktop and then I get this error: mount: block device /dev/hdc is write, protected, mounting read-only mount: /dev/hdc already mounted or /media/cdrom busy Please check that the disk is entered correctly
And nothing happens.
Then if I do open a shell and as root I do mount /media/cdrom, it does mount the cd and then I can access it from konqueror.
Again, the whole process works fine under gnome, no need to mount cd as root, the gui will mount it for you. But under kde it just does not work.
I don't know if this is related to nfs or not, but this (nfs), they are part of my network's users, and that they are using centos is the only thing in common.

Can you not mount the CDROM at all or does it merely not auto-mount? I have the latter problem, which is a little annoying at times. Doing a "mount /media/cdrom" as root mounts the CDROM and puts it on the Desktop of the currently logged in Gnome user. I never made the correlation with having an NFS mounted home directory. In our environment, root can not access (read or write) the users' home directories.
