hooray.  finally.  got it: long buffers.  turns out that the SMBreadX
offset is _completely_ ignored, which vastly simplifies client and server
code.

it is now possible to put horrendous quantities of shares in smb.conf (i
have tried with 128 shares, each of which has a comment of about 80 chars
in length: this requires 4 separate SMBreadX calls).

it should also be possible to use USRMGR.EXE to view accounts.  HOWEVER: i
have found that this is a bit iffy, but that is due to other reasons, not
the data transfer.
