I have 3 Computers and only one of them is old enough to have a CD/DVD-ROM drive. I would like to access the media from the other computers as well.

I have mounted it under /media in the computer where the drive is attached and then tried to access it via sshfs from the other computers by connecting it with Nautilus. I get the error message "You don't have the permissions necessary to view the content of "media"". If I connect to the host computer via ssh and issue the command

sudo ls -la /media (without sudoit doesn't work)

the result is

total 8
d--x--x---  3 andrea andrea   88 Jul 22  2007 .
drwxr-xr-x 20 root   root   4096 Jul 20 10:32 ..
dr-xr-xr-x  2 andrea andrea  508 Jul 22  2007 VIDEO_TS

and if I try to sudo chmod 777 . it tells me "chmod: changing permissions of '.': read only file system" and nothing is changed.

Is there a way to share a CD or DVD drive over the network?

    Have you tried with [samba](https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=829658) ? – Matthias Lenmher Jan 18 '22 at 18:32
  • You can [create an iso](https://askubuntu.com/questions/307688/how-to-create-iso-image-from-dvd), and then [mount the iso](https://askubuntu.com/questions/164227/how-to-mount-an-iso-file) – Luuk Jan 18 '22 at 18:35
