Description Tazio Ceri 2005-11-18 23:57:10 UTC

I use the cifs module (instead of smbfs) to access samba shares. If the connection is fast, over 6Mbyte/sec on a 100Mbit LAN, sometimes I get a total freeze. The machine stop answering ping too.
The only solution is rebooting.

Can you describe your machine a little more closely? Please run
hwinfo and attach its output to this report.

If you boot with nmi_watchdog=1, does that provide any additional clues?
