Using Devices Remotely?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

Hi All:

Quick question if any of you have the answer. I have two
computers networked together and computer B has a DVD RW
drive on it. The computer I normally use, however, is
computer A. Is it possible to use the DVD drive to burn
DVDs remotely on my network? Mind you, I don't just want
to see the files that are in the disc in the drive, I want
to actually be using computer A and tell computer B's DVD
burner to burn a DVD via the network.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,

- Ian
