folder re-direction issues

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi all,

We have setup My Documents Folder Re-Direction using GPO in our 2003 domain
environment with offline files capability. Our file server also runs 2003
and is on the same LAN as all the workstations. The workstations are all XP
Pro SP2. Very frequently many times a day the workstations will report that
the file server is offline. This will cause it to totally disconnect from
the file server and any other shares that we have mapped to the file server
will be lost as well. We wait about anywhere from 15-30 mins and the little
computer icon in the tray for offline files will start blinking and we
synchronize and voila everything is back online again. Why is this
happening? Our file server never goes down. It is up...

TIA!
