Thanks Konstantin, that bit works works OK, in that from the server where I just setup the loopback, a ls of the /suse directory (well, /suse10.0 in this instance) shows the contents of the dvd.iso. (How does this relate to the command hoaghi gives in his mounting the iso: mount -o loop /dadadadum.iso /anywhere; does the ouid and gid alter where the loop goes, or is the loop optional front or back of the command?). > ftpd -D err just tried ftpd, came back with an error (this is in suse 9.3) saying "bash command not found". This is su'd into a terminal window as root immediately after executing the mount command given above. What is ftpd and where would it normally be resident? (I must get a grip of path commands in linux some day, old Dos was soooo easy to set up a path command...)
