Virtual Daemon Manager on server

[sinner8347]

hi guys, wanna ask u all whether i can install this virtual daemon manager on a server and allow user to use it without install on their own pc but through network? currently doing a website for a school, this web site allow user to upload a entire cd volume into a server by burning the cd into a image first, so i was thinking of allow user download the image and use this virtual daemon manager to mount/unmount it?thx a million

What kind of image access do you want on users local machines?

a)Network file sharing (with or without a drive letter)
or
b)actual CD-ROM emulation

When image files are not located on a users local computer the most commonly used method is to install DAEMON Tools on that individual computer and browse for the image file over the network and mount directly.

I'm curious if you have a reason why you should avoid installing DAEMON Tools on the computers?

Remember to check the DAEMON Tools license when installing in a corporate environment (use in schools is free of charge).

Did you disable Secure Mode in DT? It blocks all command-line functions when enabled.

The reason why i avoid to install Daemon tools on the computers is some of their PC cant install the Daemon tools on their PC.That the point. And now i have done a method like this, i map a drive in my PC from the server that store the files. Let say Y, and i try to mount the file using the daemon tools installed in the server machine, is it possible to do it?
