Remote mount of a cdrom
I am trying to remote mount a cdrom (Sun Ultra 10 running release 7) on another system.
I followed the following procedure offered by a friend:
To allow a drive to be mounted, edit /etc/dfs/dfstab file to include the following line:
share -F nfs -o ro /usr/man
On computer with drive to be shared, type:
share -F nfs /cdrom/cdrom0
On Computer with drive to be mounted, type
mount "remote hostname":/cdrom/cdrom0 /mnt
I get this error message after the mount command - RPC:: Program Not Registered.
What am I missing?

halmount
halmount(1) User Commands halmount(1)
NAME
halmount - mount and umount filesystems via hal
SYNOPSIS
halmount [OPTIONS]... <device|label> [mountpoint]
halmount -u [OPTIONS]... <device|label|mountpoint>
halmount -e [OPTIONS]... <device|label|mountpoint>
DESCRIPTION
halmount can mount and umount filesystems via hal. Hotpluggable devices and media such as USB sticks and CD-ROMs are typically not entered
into /etc/fstab and are therefore not mountable by normal users via the mount(8) command. Instead hal provides methods to mount and umount
such devices.
Additionally it's also possible to eject devices. For devices like USB sticks eject means the device cannot be mounted again until the
stick is re-plugged, ie a "save remove" feature.
OPTIONS
-t TYPE
specify the file system type to use
-o OPTIONS
specify mount options
-v verbose listing of devices
-u umount specified device
-e umount and eject specified device
-a perform requested mount/umount/eject operation all available devices
--listudi
list UDIs of devices, useful for debugging
EXAMPLES
halmount
list all mountable devices known to hal
halmount /dev/hdc
mount device hdc on default mount point (/media/volumelabel)
halmount /dev/hdc cdrom
mount device hdc on /media/cdrom
halmount -u "Holiday Pictures"
umount device that has the label "Holiday Pictures"
