I have been reading the NFS-HOWTO, but I > did not find a hint to solve this problem. On obelix (the server) install the nfs-server package. Then edit /etc/exports to specify which directories are mountable via NFS. You probably want to export /cdrom (assuming that's you CD-ROM mount point), so simply add '/cdrom' to the exports file. Then, run /etc/init.d/nfs-server start. You should be able to verify that it's running by running 'ps ax | grep nfs'. On the client machine, run 'mount -t nfs obelix:/cdrom [local_mp]' where [local_mp] is the local mount point. Those steps worked for me; they seem pretty generic, so they'll probably work for you, too. Good luck.
