On one of my windows 2000 servers (VPN) when it reboots the default shares (IPC, ADMIN$, etc) are missing, i have to go and manually restart the server service and they come back up, any ideas? it is already set to automatic start.

thanks,

I suspect the problem is with File and Print Sharing or with the Computer Browser Service. Check the Event Log for the error discription. Event ID: Source... ETC.

Actually as i keep troubleshooting, I noticed that the admin shares disconnect by themselves for some odd reason. nothing in the logs, has anybody experienced this before?

thanks

Have you tried looking at the registry to see if the variable is being set back to 0 somehow? You might try setting it to 1 manually, then see if that survives a reboot. If not, try setting it manually, then deleting the key.

NO i already read that article and i tried to enable it using poledit and that didn't work.
