How do i eject the cd drive of a different computer on the same network?

Question

how do i eject another computer's CD drive through my computer which is on the same network?

Answer 1

other than running a domain server environment with a windows 2k3 server or something, i would suggest initializing an RDP session to the chosen device as the best way.

Start> Run> MSTSC [enter]

in the remote desktop window, enter the hostname or ip address of the chosen computer, when prompted, enter the credentials of a user of that computer with permission to run system commands and proceed as if it were the computer you were sitting at.
