When reading this message I misread it thinking you were trying to map
to a Windows XP share from a Linux box.  I've done this in the past to
make a Windows 98 share more accessible to Windows XP clients.  I was
thinking that you were exceeding the 10 client limit of the Windows file
and printer sharing that I used to read about from time to time.
