  Savannah,

  A while back I cured some ODBC problems on W9X and NT by turning on
some of the Connection Pooling options.  The defaults may have changed 
for W2K and are now a problem.  I doubt that ODBC pooling is your problem
but perhaps a similar concept has changed for the share directives.

  Good luck,

  David LaRue
