I've figured it out. I discovered this:
http://www.elis.rug.ac.be/~ronsse/cdfs/

Compiling and Install was straight forward. Now my machine can mount
audio cds. So, I've just done an NFS share of the mounted CD, and am
currently backing up/encoding the CD's on the box that has enough
processor. It seems to work really well.

All good.
