arhh.. the SMBFS (http://us1.samba.org/samba/) 2GB limit was annoying, when changed to CIFS (http://www.cifs.org/) that just messed up things even more.
CIFS errors which stopped the machine.
CIFS VFS send on sock ce60c080 stuck for 30 seconds
CIFS VFS Error -11 sending data on socket to server
CIFS VFS No task to wake, unknown frame RCVD!
This locked the server - you couldn't logon using putty/ssh as after putting in username you entered the password to be locked between accessing the system and not.
The fix for this 2gb file limit is very simple but also very annoying, within the mount options (-o) add in lfs or within the fstab where the guid are e.g.
/RemoteServer /mnt/backup smbfs lfs,defaults,umask=0000 0 0
