SUMMARY: NFS permission probs with CDROM

ignore my post, as I've just figured it out, so I'll post a summary
anyway...
/etc/dfs/dfstab should be:
share -F nfs -o ro=nec_pcs /cdrom/cdrom0
it seems that an entry is put into sharetab by the system, but I had
added:
/cdrom/cdrom0/s0 - nfs ro=nec_pcs
the entry that was automatically added in was:
/cdrom/sol_8_1000_sparc_2 - nfs ro=nec_pcs
my conclusion without ranting... well, sort of...
DON'T put stuff in /etc/dfs/sharetab. you confuse the system.
ONLY put a share line into dfstab. then everything works OK.
I now feel like less of a gumboot because I have learned something.
