Try using the IP in the fstab. I've read on the debian IRC and mail
lists a few people complaining about Ubuntu's host name handling. Not
sure what they were complaining about though, didn't pay much
attention. I know a couple of users had serious issues networking
Ubuntu machines with Debian machines, and blamed Ubuntu's host/domain
name handling as the issues.

I personally don't know how true that is. I've always used IP #'s in
all my networking situations, and have had 0 issues.
