I am running latest Mac OS with all updates (Mac Pro). I have a very strange thing happen. I connect to a buffalo NAS share via SMB. The connection could last a week or a day working great, then weird things start to happen. First sign of issues is I can't write to the SMB. I can read from it. If I eject the share, the OS just hangs and it never ejects it. I can't mount any new SMB shares until I reboot the Mac.
I already tried shutting down the network card and then starting it up (using sudo ifconfig en0 down and then sudo ifconfig en0 up). This doesn't help. I tried looking for samba service and restart it.
Reboot always fixes the issue and it will once again work for a while and then just not work.
In addition, a locally mounted Time Machine share hangs and is in "preparing to backup" mode. If I cancel it, it just says stopping backup but the backup never stops. All these things happen around the same time.
An y ideas?
P.S. Rebooting is a pain in the butt since I am running fusion with 3 different OSes in it.
