Mounting a remote dvd drive


Hi, I am after a little bit of help, I have a Linux Server that has a mounted CD drive, but I need to have access to a DVD drive, so I am wondering if I can do this with the mount command to mount the remote shared dvd drive on a Windows Server, can anyone help I am new to Linux but I really like it, thanks in advance.

Regards

You will need to use Samba and share the directory where the DVD is mounted. Then you will be able to see it in Network Neighborhood.
