Running 6.1

Setting up a file server for Win9x/NT/2K clients using RH6.1/Samba.  Two
World Book CDs have to be served for client/server World Book 2000, so:

I mkisofs of the two CDs.  I mount them and share them through Samba.
Perfect!  Win9x loves it.  However, WinNT/2K has a problem.  It seems that
the World Book client thinks the CDs are not there even though I can browse
the CDs from Win2K and even successfully run the setup.exe.

The World Book client is likely to detect copies, etc. thru perhaps a false
volume name or publisher name on the CD.  I'm stuck.

Yes, I know this may be a Windoze issue or a World Book issue.  I just
wanted to check if I was missing something obvious on the Linux/Samba side
of things.  Does NT/2K need CD volumes to be shared or labeled differently
or does NT/2K alter the volume name after mounting....?

Thank you.
