I have a Win2k SP2 server and a bunch of Win98 clients connecting to it. Everyday the problem comes up where the drive and printer mapping are lost and the server cannot be access by its name, but it can be accessed by its IP. DNS and WINS are setup correctly on the server and clients. Any ideas?

I have now found that I must remove the server from the NT domain it is part of and then add it back to the domain. This allows the clients to locate the server. Any other ideas?

your server is not associated by any name could be a good starting point.
