DiskCopy images work quite well for this. Why make them read/write, it's supposed to be a CD-ROM. I've created compressed read-only images of CD-ROMs and then shared the mounted image. I also use mounted images of CD-ROMs on a PB5300 since it has no CD drive (but does have a 20Gb HD). Apple's DiskCopy is included in later OS installs. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
