ifconfig will show you data on the interface for packets in/out
retries.

syslog is not enabled by default.   Add syslog to cmdline.txt to enable
(or use the Bootcodes web page In the  Extras area )

One thing with pcp, there is no daemon watching the mounts.  So if cifs
cannot manage the connection at the kernel level, you will have to write
your own service.   As others have said, if music folders  disappear 
LMS is not going to be happy.  So you would have to shut down LMS,
remount your disk, restart LMS    I have cifs connections to a NAS that
are running for weeks upon end, with the NAS going to sleep and waking
up, and pCP handles that fine.

cifs expects a response when it dismounts.  So if you network is
dropping or your remote server is dropping, cifs may not get a response.
The default timeout is quite high (I want to say 5 minutes)  so that
may lead you to believe that it is "locking" up the pi.

One last thing, you may want to install cifs-utils.tcz   extension, it
contains a few more cifs specific tools, they are normally not needed,
but may help.
