My be windows machine was rebooted or hibernated and mount.cifs fails to re-read or re-mount it properly. If you still the same problem - try to remount it and check logs in your windows machine and make sure you set correct power options in windows PC.
Strange file permissions for cifs mounted folder

Question
I have a folder on my windows machine which is mounted to my linux machine using cifs. Today when accessing that folder I was denied access. When I checked file permissions I found out that it was showing very strange permissions, username, size and lastmodified date. Screenshot below:
When I checked the mounted folders using df -h
I saw that this folder is not listed. What might be case of such a behaviour?
