Losing Network Connections

Can anyone tell me why everyone on our network loses
their network connection around 6:30 - 7:00 every
evening? As soon as you log off and back on the network
it runs fine.

I have looked in the users permissions and everyone has
permission to be logged on at that time. Nothing, that I
am aware of, is running in the background at that time.

Thanks for your help.

Hi K..
When you say the loose there network connection do you mean the
connection to a file server or network connection is general? Please
specifiy more about the environment.

If the clients are loosing there connection to one server, please check the
scheduled tasks and see if anything is running on the server in the
background at that point. I know you stated there wasn't that you were
aware of but most of the time you can see that in scheduled tasks. You may
want to do a screen shot of the task manager at normal times, then do one
when the problem occurs and see if there is a process running that normally
isn't.

I would also suggest checking the system and application event logs on the
clients and the server, do you see any error or warning messages at that
time.

Thank you,
