I would like to make a CD-ROM disk available via ftp.  I tried using
KA9Q but when an ftp client uses the 'dir' or 'ls' command KA9Q tries
to create a temp file on the ROM disk, ha, ha.  I like KA9Q because it
will support concurrent ftp sessions and has some password/directory
security.

Has anybody made a CD-ROM accessiable through ftp?  What did you use?

Thanks!

Tim Lange.
