We have a CD-ROM reader attached to a IBM PC-AT via a SCSI board. I have been wondering if it would be possible to connect it to our DECstation 3100. I assume that we just need to get the right cable and check for the right SCSI termination (since we also have a Maxtor 8760S on the DECstation). The main question is what kind of software is needed. Presumably there is a low-level driver (perhaps the "generic SCSI driver of Ultrix 3.1?", but then is there also a higher-level program needed? We have lots of CD-ROMs now that are readable under DOS (I think this means the so-called "High Sierra" format), what do these look like to an U*ix machine? ++ERic Fielding eric@geology.tn.cornell.edu eric@crnlthry.bitnet
