The cdrom doesn't mount on bootup which I believe to be correct due to
the noauto part.
I played around with the samba config and found that the paths I was
using for mount and unmount were incorrect, corrected the paths and
now it mounts and unmounts fine.
Cool. Just one question though, I am not trying to be confrontational or
anything, this solution automatically mounts and shares whatever is in
the cd drive? I can easily imagine putting a cd, say with backups or
other personal info, into the drive that I may not really want to share.
Then disable the automount options for the CD drive(s). In Gnome:
System->Preferences->Hardware->Removable Drives and Media
Uncheck "Mount removable media when inserted". Note that from now on,
you'll have to manually mount the media, and there will NOT be a /media
entry for the drive to mount to. To solve:
1. Create something like "mkdir /mnt/cdrom" and export that via Samba.
2. When you have a CD you want to share, "mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom".
