(Sorry, I only remember my own URLs. :) I used sharity-light once before (on 3.3-R) and it worked, although not very well. Since then, I have upgraded the same machine to 3.5-Stable. Now sharity light fails as I mentioned above. I had heard of smbfs somewhere else, and decided to try it (in fact, I came across your web page while searching google). I followed the instructions listed in the INSTALL file, and when I do: #kldload /modules/smbfs.ko the system crashes with an `Invalid Page Fault in Kernel mode'. Any clue? I'd be happy to provide any other information that might help.
