Hi,

it´s because a setting in the 2K3 domain controller policy.
In Active Directory Users and Computers, rightclick om Domain Controllers,
Group Policy. Edit the default domain controller policy. Under Computer
Config, Security Options (something, don´t have any computer around to look
at), there is a setting called something like Default disconnect client = 15
min. Change this to 0.
