I can be sitting in Windows logged onto a domain setup with Samba and using a mapped drive when all of a sudden its like the connection with the shares is terminated. This is a new install of Windows 2000 and its done it before and after the new install. I have another fresh install of a Windows 2000 computer on the network and there are no problems with that. Any ideas? Please make sure any replies are sent to my email address. Thanks! Pat Hagge maxrebo@mindless.com
