I am beating my head against a brick wall here...
I have a machine with 3 CD-ROM drives (/mnt/cdrom, /mnt/cdrom2,
/mnt/cdrom3 is the way the Mandrake install set them up). I want
to share all three as one Samba share. I am trying to change the
mount points to /mnt/cd/cda, /mnt/cd/cdb, and /mnt
To those who replied to my question about changing the mount
point of CD-ROMs, thank you very much for taking the time. I
hadn't thought of creating a softlink. It worked like a charm. Now I
am sharing all 3 CD-ROM drives as one drive letter for the Windows
machines on the network.

Actually, you don't even have to go through all that. What you can do is
the following:
#ln -s /mnt/cdrom /desiredmountpointname/cda
#ln -s /mnt/cdrom2 /desiredmountpointname/cdb
#ln -s /mnt/cdrom3 /desiredmountpointname/cdc
Then, in your smb.conf, just add /desiredmountpointname as a non-witab
if the problem is changing the mount points then edit /etc/fstab and
alter the references to /mnt/cdrom etc. accordingly; or else run
linuxconf and choose (from memory-in win at mo.) filesystem>access local
files> or similar and make alterations to mount points there, make sure
the drives aren't m
