Sharepoint strangeness

After working properly for months, our server sharepoints have started to exhibit some strange behavior. The servers are running 10.3.8 and the clients are running 10.3.7 through 10.3.9.

On one server, the root level of the server is a sharepoint, along with many subordinate folders. On another, the hard disk is divided into two folders, each of them a sharepoint.

Users who use Connect to Server menu command see the normal array of sharepoints and the volumes act normally.

But the volumes are no longer capable of being dragged to the Dock for future use as bookmarks. The Dock "sees" them as having identical AFP addresses and disregards the new icon.

The same kind of problem occurs when these volumes are dragged to the users' start-up items list. When installed they appear as /Volumes/main/ and /Volumes/main/sub01, but after the user reboots the sub01 turns into /Volumes/main!

Any ideas?
