What does "an AppleShare system error occurred" mean in Panther?

Hi. I have seen this "an AppleShare system error occurred" error on various of my clients, very sporadically. I get it when trying to connect to my Panther server through various mechanisms (Connect to Server, a scripted mount command, etc.).

This error message appears sporadically in Google... In every instance, someone reports that they get this error, but *nobody* ever has any idea what it means. It even appears in this forum a couple times, but nobody ever has any opinions on it.

AppleShare has nothing to do with this connection, as far as I know. I don't have AppleTalk browsing turned on on my OSXS. I'm only using Panther machines on both sides.

I've seen this on my local network, and when trying to connect remotely. The message appears as soon as I click Connect in the connect to server dialog.

Does anyone know what this message means?
