I have this kown problem with samba drives and changed the protocoll to cifs:// what helps as long as my macbookpro does not go to sleepmode. After waking up it frezes again so i assume that it disconects the network-drive and remounts it at wakeup with smb://
Can i somehow check how the drive is mounted (what protocol is used) maybe trough terminal or so?

Open System Information (Apple Menu > About this Mac > System Report, or Applications > Utilities > System Information). You'll find the connection protocol until Network > Volumes. In the lower right pane it's identified as "Type".

Thanks that helps to identify when it changes.
Is there also a location to change that "standard" mount-type?

Do you mean the mount point? Thanks a unix question. I am not knowledgable enough to answer, but you should be able to find out pretty easily with an internet search. I'm not sure you'd want to mess with the standard, though.
