That's because CD is not the same as DVD... the dvd+rw-tools won't 
handle CDs.

You either have to create your own equivalent to dvd-handler for CDs - 
mkisofs and cdrecord are the most important tools to use - or write 
volume files to disk and later copy or move them to CDs. bimanager or 
whatever it's called is a web front-end for this purpose.

Alternatively, you could use CD-RW and use the packet writing tools 
plus UDF to use them like conventional file systems.

Note that probably only very few people use CDs for backups now, so 
the help you can get will be very limited... CDs simply don't offer 
the amount of storage space needed today.
