Hello, I have recently installed Samba on my Sun Fire V-440 Solaris 8 Unix server and it works fine to map drives from my PC (late model running Windows XP Professional)(on a large LAN) to the shares on the Unix server.
However, what I have a need for is to be able to map the other direction. Basically, need to sit at my PC at my desk, far from the server, load a CD into the CD-ROM drive of the PC and have it work as if the CD-ROM drive is actually a device on the Unix server. Using Hummingbird Exceed as my X-Term solution to the Unix server. Does this work with Samba? Has anyone ever found this solution or do you have any thoughts as to why it might not be a good idea to implement?
