I have 6 XP Pro machines running on a Windows 2003 SBS. All works fine during the day. Two machines are left on overnight and each morning it loses the mapped network drives. If we log out and then log back in again the connections are reconnected and all is fine! I have turned off the power management on the network card on both the xp machines and the server. I have run a continuous ping from server to pc and pc to server and was still working the next morning with no drop outs but still loses the mapped network drives ..... I wonder if its the autodisconnect on the server??? But I need help .... its driving me nuts!!!! PLEASE!
