Tried that. Didn't work. Still says it's in use and won't allow the
"force" to take effect.

I usually have the same problem and just use "umount -f /mnt/cdrom".

Nothing else. Just mounted it from an xterm, didn't go in it,
and NFS mounted it from the other machine. umount once
I'm done from the 2nd machine, then try to umount the CD,
and it tells me it's still being used. I think it's NFS that's not
giving it up for some reason...
Thanks though :)

Do you have any xterms in /mnt/cdrom? If you do, cd out of /mnt/cdrom
and try umount. Good luck,
