Only a domain admin can fix this, and it is done by setting policy in either an end users OU, or group OU in Windows 2000. On a Windows NT server it's done in the user manager (or can be done in Poledit also)

NET CONFIG SERVER /AUTODISCONNECT:-1
Run this on the client and the server. The default autodisconnect timeout is 15 minutes. This line sets the autodisconnect to 8000 years.
