In order to share the cd-rom successfully between machines on any version
of netware light, personal, or I believe, even 3.0) You need to do some
tricks to make it behave.  I don't remember the exact sequence of things,
but there is a white paper on it at novell's site.  (I used it about 8
years ago when I was setting up a network so I could have multi-node on my
bbs) But I think the way it needs to work, is to load the network before
you run the mscdex.exe driver (or nwcdex in this case) Then the network
will see the drive, and be able to share it.
