 	<li>Shared folder configuration
 	<ul>
+		<li>If you cannot mount to shared folders published from Windows, and
+		you get the error <tt>"mount error 12 = cannot allocate memory"</tt>,
+		then this is a host issue.  You can fix this in your Windows registry.
+		<p>Edit the key 
+		<pre>
+		HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters\IRPStackSize
+		</pre>
+		<p>
+		Define it as a DWORD value (if missing).  Set it to a value in
+		the decimal range 15 to 18.  (The documentation is unclear what this
+		value indicates, so it may require some experimentation.)
+		</p>
+		<p>The new setting will only be read when the sharing service
+		is restarted.  You may do this via 
+		<strong>Control Panel &gt; Administrative Tools &gt; Services &gt;
+		Server</strong> and restart, or if you've got more time to kill,
+		reboot your system.
+		</p>
+		<p>
+		Also see <a href="http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;177078">the Microsoft Knowledge Base article</a>
+		for more information.

 		<li>Be careful about the time synchronization configuration in the VM or the timezone
 		used in the VM image.
