On the desktop "sudo service portmap start" resulted in "start: Job is
already running: portmap." So I stopped it, which resulted in "portmap
stop/waiting." I assumed this meant I had successfully stopped it, so
then I entered the start command again, and this time it gave me
"portmap start/running, process 28982." There was no change in the
ability to see the share.

On the laptop the same start command resulted in "portmap: unrecognized
service." Trying just the command "portmap" gave me "command not found."
