>> Subject: TECH: CD-ROM LAN First, can anyone tell me how to subscribe to the CD-ROM Lan group? Second, We have been using an older version of CBIS software to run CD's on a Novell 3.2 network. The update for the CBIS is $600. I understand that you can run CD's just using the Novell. We only will have two or three drives connected to the server and only 25 computers on the network. Will this work OK for us or do we need the CBIS? The server will have 32 megs but we could add more memory if we didn't have to update the CBIS. Any help would be appreciated. Of course I need it ASAP! Vicki Sherouse sherouse@tenet.edu >> Vicki, yes you can run CD-ROMs under 3.12 Netware but - the drives must be SCSI and you will use server memory. It varies depending on the number of files and size of the CD-ROM to be cached. You could use up to 9MB of memory for a full 600MB CD-ROM. You will need to check the actual size of the information on the CD-ROM and calulate the information via the install guide that comes with your 3.12.
