I seem to remember something like this happening to me on ubuntu...
mounting seemed to be a bit hit and miss for network resources. I think
I fixed it by using visudo to giving the default user permission to run
mount without a password. After that, the network resources were always
there on startup - I know that shouldn't work, but it did. Strange, but
true.
