This behavior can occur because both Windows NT Server version 4.0 and Windows 2000 Server can drop idle connections after a specified time-out period, which by default is 15 minutes, so that server resources are not wasted on unused sessions. The connection can be re-established very quickly at a later time, if required.
To resolve this behavior, use a command to change the default time-out period on the Windows NT Server 4.0 or Windows 2000 Server: At a command prompt, type: net config server /autodisconnect:30 .
The valid value range to configure this setting from a command line is from -1 through 65,535 minutes. To disable Autodisconnect, set it to -1 .
NOTE : This step must not be confused with the remote access Autodisconnect parameter that is turned off if you set it to a value of zero (0).
If you set Autodisconnect to zero (0), this setting is not turned off and after a few seconds of idle time very fast disconnections can occur.
I hope this cures your problem.
