NCPMOUNT losing connection

We are mounting a Novell server from a Red Hat and it is mounting fine but keeps losing it's connection.  I have tried using the t and r switches to increase the retries and timeouts but this hasn't helped.  It will then give an i/o error.

sorry,

currently we are mounting via TCP. this works, but seems to "unmount" the Novell fs after about an hour. we tried changing the timeout, but that did not seem to affect anything.
This works really well now, it turns out that it was an unrelated network issue. Once we used the switch to increase the timeout, then we were good.
