More data:

I _did_ find some error messages of interest in messages on the RH9 
system (sorry I missed this earlier):

Oct 16 08:29:00 home kernel: smb_open: New York City/CIMG0219.JPG open 
failed, result=-13
Oct 16 08:29:00 home kernel: smb_open: New York City/CIMG0219.JPG open 
failed, result=-13
Oct 16 08:29:00 home kernel: smb_readpage_sync: New York 
City/CIMG0219.JPG open failed, error=-13
Oct 16 08:29:00 home kernel: smb_open: New York City/CIMG0219.JPG open 
failed, result=-13
Oct 16 08:29:00 home kernel: smb_open: New York City/CIMG0219.JPG open 
failed, result=-13
Oct 16 08:29:00 home kernel: smb_readpage_sync: New York 
City/CIMG0219.JPG open failed, error=-13

I can't seem to dig up a list of the samba error messages and what they 
mean - I guess I can start going through the source, but I just figured 
someone here would have seen this before.  An old post elsewhere which 
refers to "result=-13" says the mount died, but the process is still 
humming along on my system and it can still read other (not new) files 
no problem.

Anyone?
