I chatted with Thierry on IRC and he had a wealth of additional information regarding this bug. He even raised the issue on the ubuntu- devel mailing list:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2009-March/027770.html It also seems it is more widespread than just affecting cifs, see bug 113095 and bug 41794. Multiple packages are affected here. I'm subscribing and assigning this to the ubuntu-foundations team to try to get a consensus on the best approach to fixing this. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Ubuntu Foundations Team (ubuntu-foundations) -- P3: Network is brought down before network filesystems are unmounted (CIFS timeout at shutdown) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/348004 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Foundations Team, which is a direct subscriber.
