Sharing violations

[silud]

I have a network with 8 WinXP machines and 2 W2K servers. One server has a hard disk shared for all the user data. Users are reporting problems when they try and save documents in MS Office XP, with sharing violations. The only solution is to reboot the file server. Any better ideas?

Try use "net config server /autodisconnect:-1" from command prompt vadimp@yandex.ru

Thanks for the response. How would this work, exactly? I have tried looking up the autodisconnect option on the Microsoft website. Do I set the autodisconnect option on all the clients, or just on the server?

I presume that disabling autodisconnect would prevent network shares being disconnected when files are open, thus preventing sharing violations?

just on the server ;=0 vadimp@yandex.ru

OK, thanks guys. I'll install the Service Packs and see if that makes a difference. Failing that I'll try the autodisconnect. I'll let you know if it works.
