Hi GraXi,

Thanks for posting here.

From the description, I understand the issue is that you make the mapped
drives to network share on SBS 2003 server,but the mapped drives cannot
keep up and disappear at once. If I am off base, please don't hesitate to
let me know.

Let us refer to the following steps to troubleshoot the issue:


Currently, I suggest you go to the SBS Server, go to command prompt, type
following command:
net config server /autodisconnect:-1

Go to the computer which have network share,type the same command:
net config server /autodisconnect:-1

Restart the SBS Server and the computer, then try again to see if the issue
is resolved.

For more info, please refer to:
