Did this issue occur in a previous version of Ubuntu, or is this a new issue?
Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.16 kernel[0]. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'. If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'. If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'. Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed". Thanks in advance.

Idling for an extensive time is the only thing I can think of. Found many similar reports, eg: http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/print.php?form=1&topic_id=35154&forum=55&order=ASC&start=0 http://serverfault.com/questions/307636/virtualbox-running-fedora-15-keeps-losing-its-cifs-mount-of-a-windows-share My symptom is, I am able to mount the CIFS Network drive fine. I can write to it and read from it, for quite a while. The problem is that eventually the mount will become inaccessible from linux. When that happens I can't run ls /mnt/z. Even sudo umount -l /mnt/zdoesn't work. In fact, when I run those commands they lock up the shell in which they were run. dmesg gives the following error [ 72.250743] CIFS VFS: default security mechanism requested. The default security mechanism will be upgraded from ntlm to ntlmv2 in kernel release 3.1 [ 126.807829] EXT4-fs (sda1): re-mounted.

But I'm not sure. Here are more info of my system: $ uname -rm 3.0.0-17-generic x86_64 $ modinfo /lib/modules/3.0.0-17-generic/kernel/fs/cifs/cifs.ko filename: /lib/modules/3.0.0-17-generic/kernel/fs/cifs/cifs.ko version: 1.74 . . . vermagic: 3.0.0-17-generic SMP mod_unload modversions The ubuntu is running under virtualbox on my Windows 7 machine. the network is always working on the Windows side. Just logging what I am experiencing, and understand that there may not be any solution. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ My own experience is that when downloading files using Opera and trying to navigate the file system in order to find the directory in which I wish to save the file, freezes Opera. If I try to open or save a file using a text editor, say gVim, then a similar problem is encountered. The freeze doesn't happen every time. I can't seem to work out why I experience a freeze only some of the time. Any freeze may last several minutes. I am only seeing this with Kubuntu 12.10 and 13.04. I did not see this with Ubuntu/Kubuntu 12.04. Disconnecting my NAS drive allows me to open and save files to any directory without any freezing at all.
