The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Solaris - Can't mount my cdrom

Asked by barthalamu in Sun Solaris, Sun JDS

Tags: solaris, cdrom, mount

This is actually a question that I have previously asked, but is a problem I am still having.  Thanks for any help.

I just ran the JASS(Solaris Security Toolkit) on my Solaris 8 box to harden it.  It stopped many services.  Now I am unable to mount my cdrom drive.  It used to mount automatically when a cd is placed in the drive, but now it does not.

I am under the impression that this functionality was because vold was running.  JASS renamed the /etc/vold.conf file to something else, but I have since renamed it to its original name.  I have also re-enabled vold at startup, but this does not seem to help.  
I have also tried to mount it manually, but have been unable to do so.

Actually, I really don't care that much about the automatic mounting of the drive.  I want to be able to mount it using the mount command.  I just can't seem to figure out my correct disk to mount it to and the right syntax to do it.

I have tried to mount my cdrom with the following syntax:

mount -F hsfs -o ro /dev/dsk/cxtxdxsx /cdrom

I have tried all of the disks on my system, which are:

# ls /dev/dsk
c0t0d0s0  c0t0d0s3  c0t0d0s6  c0t1d0s1  c0t1d0s4  c0t1d0s7  c0t2d0s2  c0t2d0s5
c0t0d0s1  c0t0d0s4  c0t0d0s7  c0t1d0s2  c0t1d0s5  c0t2d0s0  c0t2d0s3  c0t2d0s6
c0t0d0s2  c0t0d0s5  c0t1d0s0  c0t1d0s3  c0t1d0s6  c0t2d0s1  c0t2d0s4  c0t2d0s7


If someone could tell me how to find the correct disk and the right syntax to mount it with, I would really appreciate it.  Thanks.
