XP worstations intermittently lose connection to network shares...

On my office network, the domain controller is a Win2000 Server. Ever since
I began upgrading workstations to Windows XP two or three years ago, I have
had difficulties. The machines running XP Pro lose connection to file shares
on the server (and other fileservers) after a period of inactivity, sometimes
as short as five minutes, sometimes as long at 2 hours. When the user tries
to open a network share, Explorer hangs...sometimes after 3-5 min a
username/password dialog will ask you to authenticate using a different user
account than the one you're logged in under, then your connection is restored
for the time being...other times, you end up getting a "file not found" or
"you do not have permission to access this network resource" error. I've
been dealing with this for two years, and recently it's gotten a lot worse on
one computer, so I need to fix it badly. Does anyone have any clue what to
do?
