Network Drives Diconnecting

I have some simple win2k domain, with about 10 win98 workstations. I have
noticed that after about 15 minutes the network drives on the workstations,
will drop their network drives mappings. Has anyone else experienced this
problem... And if so what is the fix/workaround.

Thanks,
John

How many nics in the server? Got WINS installed on the server?
Does the ipconfig/all from the clients show that all is pointing to your
server-IP?

Try disabling autodisconnect as shown in this article ... note that the fix
needs to be applied to the server, not to the client; you may have to reboot
the client, not the server, once applied.
