I wrote that as a correction to an earlier posting.  Now I gotta
correct my correction.  I've been using AppleShare as a client
for so long, I forgot the software didn't come as part of the
standard system.  It doesn't.  Some folks were understandably
confused by my error, and to anyone who was, I apologize.

Note to Mark Sherman: thanks for pointing out my error.  I've tried to
respond directly to you; here's hoping the mailers can handle the
return address.

(And if Demosthenes thought it would improve his oration to practice
with a half-dozen pebbles in his mouth, he should try it with ten
toes wedged firmly in his throat.  :-)
