I tried

   dscl . -list /SharePoints

on the problem machine and got

   Public

and on a good machine I got

   Public Folder

But

   dscl . read  '/SharePoints/Public Folder'

returns the record not found error.

AHA! The apostrophe in "Cheeseman's" is messing up the quoting. So this on a
good machine

   dscl. read "/SharePoints/Bill Cheeseman's Public Folder"

returns a good record where all the name fields are

   Bill Cheeseman's Public Folder

instead of

   Public

on the bad machine.

I'm really not clear about how to change the record on the bad machine.

   -change record_path key old_val new_val

looks promising, but there's the little problem of the sharepoints having
different names on different machines, "Pubic" vs. "Public Folder",
according the -list command. I assume "Public Folder" is correct, but I
don't see how to change "Public" to "Public Folder" on the bad machine.
