  31. We're looking into the situation.  It's quite possible that they don't
  32. allow us to do raw accesses of the CD-ROM because that's too similar
  33. to raw accesses of hard drives which could be a security breach.
  34. However, the ability of Executor to run under NT *at all* is quite
  35. new; we cooked 1.99q8 within atwo days of getting it to run in our
  36. lab, so we haven't had much time to play with it ourselves.
