- Right, I haven't tried this, but it sounds like the same as with SunOS...

- You have to "re-export" the /cdrom directory, after mounting it. On 386BSD I think
- you do this my sending a HUP signal to the mountd proess. This causes mountd to
- reread the /etc/exports file.
-
- Please try it, but I haven't got a CDROM drive on the PC (yet).
