Sorry if it's a FAQ, but I've scanned the list archives and haven't found a reference to this problem: My win95 computer has several "ghosted" drive connections to many servers (I'm the sysadmin and need instant access to every commonly used share on the corporate network). These connections include shares on different kinds of servers: Samba 1.9.16p9-6 on RedHat Linux 4.1 & 4.2 Samba 1.9.15p6 on HP-UX 9.04 NT 3.51 SP3 NT 4.0 SP3 When I run any M$Office application from the G: drive (an NT3.51 box), and then access any Samba server who's drive is "ghosted" (session starts on demand when first accessed), the applications on the G: drive crash and burn with an invalid page fault, and the G: drive shows up disconnected and will not reconnect. I can avoid this by not ghosting connections, but many of these connections are to servers acress routers, and this would lengthen the PC's login time to up to 3 minutes! Anybody know of a cure?...
