Sharity does work with NT workstation.

What you get is a refused connection from Netbios, not the underlying TCP.
You should not give an IP-address directly to cifsmount. Sharity uses the
name given here as a Netbios destination name and Netbios does not accept IP
addresses for host names. If the machine can't be resolved via DNS, either
add it to /etc/hosts or use the option '-I 192.168.0.47' to cifsmount.
Regards, Christian.
