SMBFS Reconnection

Howdy All,
 
What I'm using:
     -Mounting an NT share located on Win2kSP1
     -Redhat 7.1
     -Samba (latest RPM's found for fixing Win2kSP2 problems)
          ( http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=48995).
     -Kernel 2.4.6.  I haven't tried any 2.4.7pre releases yet.
     -Shared files are accessed through Apache/Coldfusion
 
The reconnection problem might be that Apache is using the share and not
being able to "trigger" the reconnect.
 
The only error message I can find in my logs besides HTTPD Access Logs
is in /etc/var/messages (syslog).  It shows:
kernel: smb_get_length: recv error = 104
kernel: smb_trans2_request: result=-104, setting invalid
kernel: smb_retry: successful, new pid=143, generation=6
 
So it has recreated the connection 6 times.  It is always the "104"
error
 
This happens when I access the mounted directory for Apache to use.  I'm
also actively developing on this pages.  These are coldfusion pages as
well.
 
Apache just seems to have fits about this.  Is there a way that this.
Possibly never having to reconnect?
 
Any ideas or suggestions would be helpful,
-- TJ
