Even people like Christopher Hertel
http://ietf.cnri.reston.va.us/internet-drafts/draft-crhertel-smb-url-06.txt
don't know the maximum limit of a share name.
I always thought that the protocol could not have more than 127 charaters in 
a single share name length.

In any case Explorer should not crash.
