Yes, is IS strange, and I don't know why it happens. The only thing I could think of is that when it wakes from sleep, it gets a different IP from the server, and thus confuses the file sharing. If I re-start file sharing (ie, turn off, then on again) all is ok (Usually).
Very confusing, and often frustrating. I have switched to a static IP, and will see if it makes a difference... Wiebe.
