in reply to Legality of posting html versions of a few O'Reilly books on my server.

It's very likely that they won't let you do that. I don't have the CD-ROM, but I imagine the license is "for personal use only, not to be placed on a server". That kind of thing.

I know that if I see it on the net, I report it immediately, and O'Reilly gets the site shut down.
