do you have the cd drive mounted before you attempt to nfs mount it?
are the permissions setup properly on the directory in which you are
mounting? are you doing the nfs mount correctly?
do you have any of these setup in the /etc/fstab table? I personallt
setup the cddrive in the /etc/fstab and /etc/exports ... then I can
do a local cd mount by mount /cdrom and then go to the remote machine
and have it setup in /etc/fstab as
remotemachine:/remotedir /localdir nfs ro,noauto,soft,bg
nfs obviously is the type of mount, ro is read-only,noauto means
don't auto mount it on reboot, soft means its a soft mount, and bg
means do it as a background process so to speak...( I think).
make sure you mount the cd drive as iso9660 on the local machine and
as read-only
