This explanation links perfectly with what happens to me, now I 
understand a little better.

Yes, I had alredy tested and it works, logging out of Gnome disconnect 
from NAS but also kill processes running when I just wanted to release a 
volume SMB.

I know it's not a good solution from the point of view of security, but 
they work like that for a long time and I just recently work here. 
Furthermore I'm not familiar with this machine and the services that 
provide. Also looks set to be replaced within a couple of months, so I 
did not want to spend much time, changing the way users work, and 
risking of breaking something in a compute server used constantly with 
something that has a period of life so short.
