Re: [seul-edu] CD Server



This looks funny that I am replying to myself but....

I have discovered an easy way using some of the discussion for SEUL.  I will post detials later after I know this really works in production.  Here is a very brief sketch.

I used the dd comand from Harry McGregor:


dd if=/dev/cddevice of=filename.iso

then I am using webmin to create a samba share point to the iso.  I have not needed to use any fancy loop device commands.

Has anyone set up a linux box to serve multiple cd roms to users?  I am
trying to do just that by using the mount loop command and having it
mount different iso images of cdroms.  I am looking for a better way or
confirmation that this is a good way to do this.  We currently have a
Procomm CD tower that went bad and I would like to replace it with a
linux box.  Any ideas.....
