Bug Description
Binary package hint: gvfs
I've experienced this problem in new installations of Hardy, Intrepid and now Jaunty as well.
I can browse to a Windows network share by going to Places->Network. Then I copy a number of files/directories (totaling ~30GB or so) to a local destination. I expect the transfer to take 1-1/2 to 2 hours on our network. However after a certain amount of time of successfully transferring files (time varies anywhere from less than 5 minutes to half an hour) the transfer hangs, not progressing at all, due to the share having become unmounted. (And the only way to cancel the transfer is to log out, as the cancel button does not work.)
File transfers from manually mounted shares work fine, but using the 'user-friendly' method always hangs.
