Network Shares

I have long used SMB for network shares in my home environment due to a
couple older machines with various versions of windows and some virtual
machines that needed access to the same shares. But over time my shares
have become rather complex and all the windows machines have been
replaced!

I'm now in a linux only environment and decided to try NFS instead. I
rebuilt shared volume by moving all of the data to an external backup,
formatting the volume and manually creating logical directory structures
and moving the files back into place from the external volume. Correctly
using group permissions and user permissions I am managing 8 users with
full access to their respective data and maintaining permissions and I'm
really happy with it. Performance doesn't seem to be any different
really, most of the machines are on a gigabit network with a couple
older machines on a 10/100 hub connected to the gigabit switch.

I shutdown my main computer for the weekend and left town. I just got
home, booted up the computer and opened Dolphin and my remote volume is
empty. I opened the command line and everything is there. I checked with
Thunar and again, every thing looks great. What's the deal with KDE apps
and nfs volumes?

Dolphin can't see anything. Kwrite/Kate are horribly slow when modifying
text files over nfs.
I thought these problems were fixed. I have been running this setup for
about 3 weeks now, so why the sudden problems?
