- SHSUSERV is a CD-ROM server that allows 48 users simultaneous access to
- CD-ROMs. The CDs may be mounted on physical drives or they may
- be cached images created on a hard disk using the CDCACHER program.
- Driver names and cache image names may be specified in a server
- initiation file (SHSUSERV.INI) at start up.
-
- SHSUCDN is a pseudo CD-ROM driver that runs as a TSR on a client work-
- station. It accepts CD-ROM driver request from MSCDEX and
- transmits them on to the server and returns the server response
- to MSCDEX. SHSUCDX may be used in place of MSCDEX.
-
- SHSUCDX is a CD-ROM redirector substitute for MSCDEX. It differs from
- MSCDEX in that it can be un-loaded, it occupies less memory, and
- only selected drives are mapped. Version 1.4b also converts
- lowercase characters to upper case in directory entries. Lower
- case characters are invalid but some mastering programs put them in.
- Local and networked CD-ROMs can be accessed simultaneously using
- the SHSUSERV/SHSUCDN client/server software or by using SHSUCDHD.
- A total of 10 drives can be mapped in any order from all available
- drives on 10 drivers. See README.CDX
-
- SHSUDRVX is a CD driver/controller emulator which emulates two CD drives
- loaded with ISO CD ROMS. It is useful for testing. It can be
- loaded multiple times with different driver names to simulate
- more than 2 drives. See README.DRV
-
- SHSUCDHD is a pseudo CD-ROM driver that runs as a TSR on a client work-
- station and makes up to 5 local or remote cd cache images appear as
- cd drives. It is known to be compatible with Novell VLM clients and
- NT clients. It will not access remote cache files using Novell's
- NETX shell client. See README.CDH
- Images can be created using the Cacher program or any program that can
- create and ISO disk image.
-
- Warning!!!! Attempting to use MSCDEX with SHSUCDHD will crash
- your system. SHSUCDX must be used.
-
- CDCACHER is a stand alone program for making a hard disk cache image of a CD
- ROM for the server. A full CD can take a while and lots of disk space.
-
- 2KBLOCK.DAT is a 2048 byte block of nulls for converting old cache images to
- the new cache format. See README.1ST.
-
- KLUDGE0 is a dummy CD driver which makes a specified driver,unit appear as
- unit 0 on CD0.
