smbmount question

[John Rousseau]

I didn't see any reference to this in the archives, please point me
to the right documentation if I've missed something.

I'm using samba to mount Linux (Redhat 6.1 i386 2.2.12-20)
filesystems on my NT (4, SP6) box and it works fine.

However (you knew there was a however), when I mount an NT share
onto my Linux box (same two machines) with smbmount, the mount will
'go away' after about 15 minutes (maybe it's a certain amount of
idle time). 

All I get is "input/output error" when I do a 'df' or
'ls'. Unmounting and remounting will give me another time slice to
do some work.

Any ideas? Is the Linux box closing the connection or is the NT box?
Logs on both sides of the connection don't show anything.

Thanks for any help!
-John
