Now it doesn't even work after rebooting...
Notice that I can mount a (presumably) Windows 2000 server with no problems. Other PC 
can mount and see the same shares just fine, of course.

Mac OS X 10.1.4.

No, they are not listed. The PC name is listed, but the directory is empty.

Mhhh... I have no sbin direcory in /usr/local/sharity
Do I have an installation problem? sharity.init is in 
/Library/StartupItems/Sharity/sbin
Restarting the Sharity daemon does not bring the shares back. So, it looks like I 
cannot see Win98 shares.
After that, I reintalled Sharity, and it STILL does not work.

Neither does mounting the share manually work. I am stuck.
