NSS Mount ISO

Netware 6.5

Netware 6.5 Support Pack 2 introduces the possibility to mount an ISO image of a CD or DVD as a Netare volume. This is achieved through the following 2 new NSS commands:

nss /MountImageVolume=path_imagefilename

add and mount the specified CD or DVD image file as a read-only NSS volume

nss /RemoveImageVolume=path_imagefilename

dismounts and removes the specified CD or DVD image file as a read-only NSS volume
The image file must reside on a NSS volume.

Netware 5 and 6

If you have an .ISO image you would like to mount as a volume on your netware 5 or 6 server here's how you do it.

Copy your .ISO image to a directory on your volume.
Load cdinst.nlm
Type “cd image <volumes:Path to iso file\iso filename>”
Ttype “cd mount <volume name>”

In case you don't know the volume name of your image you can type “cd device list” and check the volume name on the logger screen (ALT + ESC)
Note: For this to work make sure you do NOT have cd9660.nss and cdhfs.nss loaded.
