 A dvd reader is just a suped-up cdrom drive, so there should be no
problem there.

Cheers. The correct answer in fact should have been RTFWiki.
It's recognised OK and readable, but I haven't managed to make mplayer work as a local app. For the time being I've moved the dvd back to the server. I can play dvds from it and watch them on the 'thin' client (AMD K6 250M RAM), but 1: I need to log into the server, otherwise mplayer can't open the dvd device; and 2: I have to turn alsa off on the server to get sound out of the client. Is this 'normal'? Ideally, I want to have the dvd and mplayer both local, but I need to do some reading first. If anyone has had success with this I'd be glad to know the secret.
