Right, so I was dismounting the volume in SS before working with it in 
OS X. It wasn't open in both places at once. The shared volume didn't 
corrupt, but I'm tired of having to restart OS 9 to remount it. I'm just 
now looking for an OS 9 utility that will mount a volume but I can't 
find one. How did we used to do that? Or did we used to do that? It's 
been so long I can't remember.

Even better would be to figure out how come my network access went 
kaput. Used to work. :(
