Andrew,

the 'next-server' option in dhcpd is to tell the client where to go, to get the kernel. It has nothing to do with accessing cdrom drives.

You could probably access the cdrom drive from another machine using NFS, but it's going to be rather clumsy. Once you mount the drive with NFS, you won't be able to eject the CD, to put a different disk in. You might play with Samba and smbfs, to mount it that way.

Hello,

Is it possible for a thin client to access a cdrom device which is neither local nor on the server? In other words, it's on a separate workstation. Would the 'next server' option in dhcpd.conf do this? Or should it be done via nfs? Or what?

TIA,

Andrew
