Hi all,
ive got 2 pc's sharing all drives, including the cd writer.
I installed nero on the client pc and it doesn't cd the shared cd drive.
I guess Nero or cd burning in general doesnt work over a lan?

Comments/suggestions?

tia!

I could never get it to work either. I was able to read off a shared CD-ROM, but never write.

You can with a RAID controller board but generally speaking - no.
