Public bug reported:

I am mounting an SMB share to AS/400 via the GUI (gvfs). Then running a
multi-threaded Java program to copy files from the AS/400 to my PC hard
disks. The Java program uses pathnames to access the files on the
AS/400, e.g. /home/<me>/.gvfs/dira/dirb... All this works fine and it
runs for many hours (say 18+). Then the connection is lost. the AS/400
is up the whole time and appears quite accessible.

The really strange thing is that the files and directories on the AS/400
can still be seen and accessed via Nautilus before and after the
problem. What doesn't work is the pathname, so my Java program can't use
the path, and if I open a terminal and try to cd to .gvfs I get:

cd .gvfs
bash: cd: .gvfs: Transport endpoint is not connected

The only way I can get out of this is to reboot (logging off and on
again does not help).

As I have millions (not exaggerating) of files to copy a solution would
be really helpful.

I was using 9.10, but upgraded yesterday to 11.10. Both have the same
problem in the same way.

Thanks in advance.
