Re: Network drives show disconnected, sometimes, but still work?

I just recently have been experiencing this problem on our network.
We have Win 2003 servers in our domain and the only drives that
disconnect are mapping to this one server (however not all mapped
drives on that server have the problem). If you are the same person
logging off and back on the drives say disconnected but still work.
However if you are a different user you get Acces Denied on these
drives because of permissions. It is actually connected to the
previous user and the current user does not have those permissions. I
have tested this being a network admin. I logged on a machine and got
the disconnected drives. When accessing them I could because I had
rights. I expected to see my personal home directory files, however I
got the files of the previous users home directory. Rebooting always
resolves the problem until a second user logs on. I was thinking it
may be a recent windows update but am not sure. I have read many
fixes and none have worked. I am stumped since this has worked up
until a few weeks ago.
Also you cannot Right-Click on these disconnected drive to disconnect
them. You get an error that the network connection cannot be found.
I hope someone out there has a fix!

About 2 weeks ago they started reporting that some drives show as
"Disconnected" by they can open them and all their permissions and files
are proper. Once they connect, they can hit F5 (my computer, refresh)
and thedriveno longershowsdisconnected, it may showdisconnectedin
a couple hours and they can do it again.. Once in a while thedrivewill
not connect and they reboot and it works fine again...
I see no errors in the event logs, no errors in the server (and we have
extensive security error tracking enabled), etc....
Is anyone else seeing this, starting two weeks ago?
