Still need help.
It seems that the changes I made did help, but the users are still loosing
the connection with the Share drive.
Any other idea to fix it, or where to look for?

Thanks

**************

I changed the NIC setup to be sure it doesn't turn off.
I also found under Local Policy/Security options/Microsoft network server
that the idle time is setup for 15 min, and that "disconnect clients when
logon hours expires was enabled. I disable the 2nd setup but didn't change
the idle time as I don't know exactly how much time to give them.
I also disconnected the drive mapping on one of the computer... no idea if
it will make a difference, but I red in a previous message, that it could
affect the connection... I can't find that message anynmore, or the link to
the Microsoft's website.

Thank you to all of you gave me some instructions.

Have a great day!
