Not sure about cdda2wav will be able to use the share. - As I understand it is a FS share? And not a /dev/hdc?

The machine has no such a device. :)

It's a share you can mount wherever you want into the client machine,
i.e., under "/mnt/cdrom" and then point the "cdda2wav" utility to grab
content from that source.

The only trouble you can encounter is the program does not like it, but
that's all. In that event it just will fail with some error.

The host machine (remote CD-R) has to have a CD-ROM reader, at least X-)

So, why not extract the audio in that same computer? Then you can share
the extracted content over the network, as usual...

Or you can buy an external 5¼ enclosure and put there a dvd (both items
are nowadays very cheap) ;-)

The machine is very weak as touching its CPU power. So I did - just before was looking for the better solution (i.e. remote /dev/hdc use)

You shouldn't need many free cycles or much RAM to rip CDDA (on CD) to WAV (on
disk). You might need as much as 800MiB free, but you could do it a track at
a time if you don't have that much. Or, the WAV files could be written to a
writeable file system share (NFS, Samba, whatever) without complications.

Once you get the data, you can encode to FLAC, Vorbis, or MP3 on a different,
fast machine easily.

I'm not sure unfiltered remote access to attached SCSI devices is a "better
solution".

You are correct, but how would You fill its meta data (Artist, Title, etc) in FLAC then?

Pardon, what do mean by saying "unfiltered"?
