Been googling for awhile for an answer to this problem without too much luck finding an answer. Although I have a hard time believing that this hasn't been run into before. Let me preface this by saying although I have some nfs experience, i'm pretty much a samba newb.
When we reboot our samba server (redhat 9) all of our samba clients (also redhat 9--mount options listed below), lose the mount even after the server comes back up. Actually to be more specific, they still have the mount listed from the mount command, but a df -k on that mount reports erroneous size results and when you cd into the mount point, it shows files on the local filesystem. To fix the problem we have been unmounting and remounting everything again, but there has to be a better way.
Is this typical samba behavior? Is there a way to ensure that the mounts come back automatically?
Here is the mount cmd we are using from the linux client::
mount //mascis/music4 /music4 -t smbfs -o username=XXXX,password=XXXX,uid=505,gid=101
