You don't.  NT at the moment can be *installed* from non-SCSI CD-ROM drives,
but you can't access the CD-ROM from NT.  Apparently, CD-ROM drivers for
the SoundBlaster Pro CD should be along fairly soon, though.

No.  NT comes with TCP/IP *client* software, but not the corresponding
servers.  Typically, on a UNIX system you run "daemon" programs called
"telnetd" and "ftpd" to allow other systems telnet and ftp access to your
machine.  No such programs are included with NT at the moment.

Hope this helps!
