[ltp] DVD NFS to other machine

[The Evil One]

hmm, depending on your network speeds, i'd recommend 100MBps of course, I
honestly dont think 10MBps would cut it, also.. make sure the machine
sending the dvd data has major processing power, realize that your sending
data via your dvd, and your network card is also hard at work (3coms tend to
handle this type of stuff better). To be honest.. I think it should work if
everything is setup correctly.. it all depends on the settings.

Would not it be too slow for watching videos?
