I have a Web Server setup with Ubuntu and another Windows box. The Windows box has a shared folders for some PHP files and the Ubuntu box has the folder as a mounted drive. This is so that Apache can make it accessible on the web through the pointer or virtual directory whatever it is called. All is good for a while and then things become inaccessible.

Any ideas here? I would seem like the connection is timing out but I'm not sure on which end. I restarted Apache, Samba, and did a mount -a but none of them seem to have any effect. The only way I've found for the drive to be accessible again is to reboot the Linux box. I haven't tried restarting the Windows box tho.
