I just tried replacing "tank" with tank's IP to no avail. Argh! I wish
there was some kind of real diagnostic I could do to figure out what's
wrong. O.o

Well, NFS and SMB mounts tend to go stale and die off while a Mac is
asleep. AFP mounts, however, have a sleep state built into the
protocol, so it's possible for them to stay mounted even though the
machine is asleep.
I've been having problems with SMB and NFS mounts not showing up as
connected when Microcosm wakes up, so I figured using AFP might solve
the problem with a bit more elegance.

Not sure what you're referring as "2.0.3" here. =o)
