in windows 2000 after 20 min, the network will disconnect unless it is being used. all you have to do is reconnect and it should be fine. If it is disconnecting while it is being used, you have a problem. when it disconnects try going to start -- run - type CMD and
at the DOS prompt type PING 127.0.0.1 and see if there are any replies. If there are no replies try another network adapter, or reload the driver with the most current version.

Hi,
By default Windows 2000 auto disconnects after a few minutes of non activity. Run this command from a command line on the server and the workstation(S) with the problem. The -1 tells it to never disconnect. See article Q297684 for more details. good luck. Jim

net config server /autodisconnect:-1
