We have a recurring problem losing our sharity mounts.

Running Sharity 2.6 on a solaris E250 running solaris 2.7.

we mount a windows 2000 filesystem and all goes well and then suddenly the
mount hangs,
if we try to df the fs we get a timeout followed by:

NFS fsstat failed for server localhost: error 5 (RPC: Timed out)
df: cannot statvfs /mnt/mirror: Connection timed out

We can't do a cifsumount, we get a device busy
and any attempt to logout a user with that device mounted results in a hang.

The only solution we have found to this is to reboot our server.  This is
becoming untenable and if we can't at least find a fix for this problem we
will  have to stop using sharity.

Does anyone have any similiar experiences and/or know of a less drastic way
to recover from this.
