Hi,
I have a generic Solaris 7 system, which has a cd that I want to read on
another system. The cd is successfully mounted on the Solaris box, because I
can "cd /cdrom/cdrom0" and do an "ls" to see all the files. I've added an
entry into the /etc/dfs/dfstab file of the style -
share -F nfs -o ro /cdrom
and all appears to be well. I can mount the the cd on another system, and
when I do an "ls" on the directory I get
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 2 root nobody 512 Mar 22 14:33 ai8_workstation
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root nobody 17 Mar 22 14:33 cdrom0 ->
./ai8_workstation
However when I "cd cdrom0" and do an "ls" I get
total 0
pwd returns - /mnt/ai8_workstation
So the link appears to work, but it does seem to be able to read the
directory entries. It doesn't matter whether I mount it on another Solaris
box or a Tru64 box I get the same thing.
I tried changing the share command in the dfstab file to
share -F hsfs -o ro /cdrom
but the shareall command complained about hsfs.
