This will lead me to question if you are connecting to a Windows server that is not properly patched.  You should be able to use an up to date smb version with an up to date windows server.  I know that many departments have requirements for old systems, but I have seen worms travel over smb 1.0 in the past.  I would actually recommend having a discussion with your Windows admin about this. 

Thanks,

I meant to mention this too.  If I recall correctly, the minimum version in Samba now defaults to protocol 2.1 since under that level has some rather nasty structural issues.  If 1.0 is needed there is something rather serious going on.  Hopefully that is the root cause of the timeout issue and hopefully they fix it.

Oh, I totally agree. The only reason I added "vers=1.0" is because if
I leave it off, or change it to any other value listed in
mount.cifs(8), it doesn't work. I get a "stale file handle" error
every time I try to open a file on the share.
