Sharity-Light needs to bind to a reserved UDP port (port number < 1024) on
the loopback interface 127.0.0.1. Have you checked whether your loopback
interface is configured correctly? The 'bind' is needed for communication
with the kernel, not with the CIFS server.

An other note which should not be related with your error message: I would
recommend that you quote the shell meta-character '$' to avoid
interpretation by the shell.

You ARE on the list, you had not been able to post to it otherwise.
