Network drive gets disconnected |
|
|
Hello all!
I have a Windows 2000 Server SP4 that has 3 network drives connected. Two of
them are connected over VPNs.
My problem is that the VPN network drives are shown as 'disconnected' in the
explorer after a while, which causes some programs to fail.
Is there a way to keep them connected, or to check for connectivity and
reconnect them automatically?
Google couldn't turn anything up....
Thank you,
andy |

On the fileserver(s) run the following
net config server /autodisconnect:-1
Or in the registry at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters
Set autodisconnect between -1 (off) to 65535 (number of minutes)
