If not, edit exports and add:<BR /><BR /> /cdrom -ro -root=[remote_host]<BR /><BR />2. Mount the /cdrom directory on the server<BR /><BR />3. Run /usr/sbin/exportfs -a<BR /> this exports all directories in /etc/exports<BR /><BR />4. On the local system run:<BR /> mount -F nfs remote_host:/cdrom /cdrom<BR /> Wed, 29 Aug 2001 08:58:34 GMT https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/mounting-remote-cd-rom/m-p/2571843#M30667 eran maor 2001-08-29T08:58:34Z
