'--'hi,
'--'
'--'We have a Windows 2003 Server with a MACVOL configured to store files for 8
'--'Panther clients. The clients have no problem connecting to the share and
'--'working 99.9% of the time, but the MAC clients randomly and suddenly
'--'"disconnect" from the share. This is more annoying than anything else
'--'because data is typically not lost when the disconnect occurs, and they are
'--'able to reconect immediately. The Windows server throws the following error
'--'each time a disconnect occurs: Event ID: 12061 The file server is also a
'--'domain controller, and we have already disabled session timeouts on the
'--'local security policy of the default domain controller policy. Any ideas?
'--'Thanks.
'--'Session from user "username" was timed out and disconnected by the server.
'--'The IP address of the Macintosh workstation is in the data.
