Enable CD/DVD Sharing On All Your Macs

When Apple released the MacBook Air they introduced the ability to remotely mount disks over the network. However, only the MacBook Air has this feature by default. MacOSXHints has posted the two terminal commands required to get it working on any of your Leopard installed Macs.

defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser EnableODiskBrowsing -bool true
defaults write com.apple.NetworkBrowser ODSSupported -bool true




Once you've run those two Terminal commands, you will need to enable CD and DVD sharing. To do this, go to the "Sharing" preference pane and check the box next to "DVD or CD Sharing". Enable this on all your Macs and you should be able to access the disk drive of one Mac from any of your other Macs.

I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.
