Unless you _must_ use samba, try using nfs with tcp connection through
your vpn. It is much faster and still reliable.
mount -t nfs -o -T host:/the/path/ /mount/point
will use tcp for transport, thus ensuring you don't suffer problems
even in the case of a disconnection of the vpn. Of course, the server
must supprt nfs over tcp (most bsd do that).
We use this to connect to a cvs server and it works great.
