Yes, I suppose it should, but 'net usershare info' should *really* finish fast. 
I mean, there really isn't any reason 'net usershare info' should be looking 
anywhere but the usershares directory, which is local. Even if vnet[0-2] existed 
and could be resolved, 'net usershare info' does not use that information in any 
way unless I'm mistaken.
