Isn't SMB better than NFS?

It at least doesn't lock anything up that has a file open when the network goes down. NFS is a nightmare with that. NFS is more idiomatic on *nix but still a huge pain when dealing with matching file perms across systems.

Yeah, we've been bitten by this too, around once a year, even with our fairly reliable and redundant network. It's a PITA, your process just hang and there's no way to even kill it except restarting the server.

If you can bring the missing server back online, the NFS mount should recover.
