I run my own apache server out of my room, and was going to host some music on there for myself that I can access while i'm at school. I'd of course not give out the addy to it at all. But I burnt a data disk of all my mp3's and mounted the disk in my server box and it didn't recognize a single mp3? Is there a way to get mp3's to show up or ?

Redhat does not include mp3 support in their installs due to licensing issues
however it is easy enough to implement

that was written for RH8, but should be good for RH9.

this is not the case.
This is what is going on. I burn a data cd with all of the mp3's that are on my windows machine. I then remove the disk from my cdrom drive on my windows machine and put it into my server box's cdrom. I input mount /mnt/cdrom/ and it mount's but there are no mp3's that are visable on the disk when i change the directory to cd /mnt/cdrom/
For one, you don't mount Audio CD's in Linux, unless you have the special filesystem support. All you do is use a program to play the CD, XMMS can do this, just needs to be configured. As for not being able to see files burned onto a cd, make sure the CD has been finalized, other wise Linux might have a problem mounting it, since the volume isn't complete. Also, Multisession CDs and Linux don't mix well, it just mounts the last session done. This is from my personal experence though, haven't tried it in a while.
So... after you mount the CD, you cd to the mountpoint and don't see anything?
That's not promising.
a) make sure you're burning good CDs (test under windows?)
b) make sure you're looking at the right mountpoint (/etc/fstab)
c) make sure you're actually mounting the CD (run mount by iitself)

if you've got a network, copy it over that... much easier. mount //windowsmachine/share /mnt/tmp -t smbfs -o username=yourwindowsuser and go for it. or ftp them. set up vsftpd and ftp in from windows.
but, i assume you don't have a lan set up or you woulda done that... what program are you using to burn the mp3s? what cdrom is in the server? does it read other cd-r's?

yes i make sure its a good burn by checking under windows.
I use nero 6
I was burning them at 52x which could be a problem so i bumped it down to 8x but still got the same problem.
The cdrom in the router /server box is older and i'm not sure what the speed is of it.
I mount the cd by doing this
mount /mnt/cdrom/
sometimes it mounts others it doesn't.
then i went into the /mnt/ directory and did a mount /mnt/cdrom/ which shouldn't have made a differance but it did actually mount and the mp3's had shown up.
My machine's mobo is shot now though that my linux router was on. the CMOS battery went bad on it so I changed it out with a brand new one and while i was doing that the clip ontop of it broke off. I tried laying the machine on it's side and pressing down on the battery and rebooting but it still said the cmos battery was low. So i'm thinking that current must have flowed through the clip. I'm trying to get a friend to send me one which he said he would but he hasn't gone to see how much shipping is.
the board i'd need would be a p1 board that supports edo ram, and a 166mhz proc. I know it's slow as heck and old but it was only acting as my router/server. form factor AT
Yes I do have a network setup but i've been haveing problems with vsftpd. I can't seem to set it up correctly, I have gone through several tutorials but none of them really help out with setup. I do go into the config and yes I do add my user to the allowed users file. I then comment out all the anonymous(sp?) login lines because i really don't want people to be able to connect to it on the outside of my network except for me. I did finally get samba working for printer sharing on my dual boot machine, but since my router is down my network is also down. Which it will remain untill i get money for one, win an auction on ebay for one, or get a new mobo for the router box i was usen.
