Markus, your screenshot shows a network-manager error: nm-dispatcher.action: Caught signal 15, shutting down...
This indicates that some part of NM is not being correctly guarded from /etc/init.d/sendsigs, resulting in abnormal termination that breaks the network connection before network filesystems are being unmounted. Network Manager has previously been fixed for such bugs, but it seems to have recurred. Please file a new bug report against the network-manager package including the screenshot and this information, and paste the number of the new bug here. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/211631 Title: Network is brought down before network filesystems are unmounted (CIFS timeout at shutdown) Status in “dbus” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “dhcdbd” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “netbase” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “sysvinit” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “wpasupplicant” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “dbus” source package in Lucid: New Status in “dhcdbd” source package in Lucid: Invalid Status in “netbase” source package in Lucid: New Status in “network-manager” source package in Lucid: New Status in “samba” source package in Lucid: New Status in “sysvinit” source package in Lucid: New Status in “wpasupplicant” source package in Lucid: New Status in “dbus” source package in Natty: New Status in “dhcdbd” source package in Natty: Invalid Status in “netbase” source package in Natty: New Status in “network-manager” source package in Natty: New Status in “samba” source package in Natty: New Status in “sysvinit” source package in Natty: New Status in “wpasupplicant” source package in Natty: New Status in “sysvinit” package in Debian: New Bug description: IMPORTANT: this bug has enough information; please don't post _anything_ unless a developer asks for specific feedback!

I installed smbfs,and then put some entries into /etc/fstab, so they automount on startup. An example of this is here: //<ip address of nas box>/<share name> /home/hamish/<directory name> cifs credentials=/home/hamish/.smbcredentials,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,uid=1000,gid=1000 0 0 ** note the use of "cifs" in the lines above ** (The username and password are in the .smbcredentials file) On startup, for each entry in the /etc/fstab file, I get the following in dmesg: [ 70.495504] CIFS VFS: Error connecting to IPv4 socket. Aborting operation [ 70.495569] CIFS VFS: cifs_mount failed w/return code = -101 But the shares are mounted, and a nautilus session opens up (which is also annoying...) Also logging off with CIFS shares mounted in /etc/fstab, it sits with an error message: CIFS VFS: server not responding CIFS VFS: no response for cmd 50 mid <this number changes> And takes about 2 minutes to timeout. This also happened with Gutsy Should the timing of the mounting and dismounting be changed so that it works? It is related to the starting of network-manager and CIFS shares trying to connect on startup *before* the network is up, and dismounting the shares *after* network-manager is stopped.
