A Network running Windows 2000 as DHCP Server, DNS Server, and File Server.
A couple of workstations running Windows XP and a couple of workstations
running Windows 98SE. Of a morning in order to get the Windows 98SE
workstations connected to the Server, the server has to be restarted.
After that all of the Windows 98 workstations operate just fine. If you
have to reboot or shut off the workstations throughout the day no problems.
It only happens in the morning when they first try to access the server.
Any suggestions on how to make this quit doing it?

Thanks in advance for your help,
Russ
 
Do you leave the workstations on all night? If so I've seen 98
workstations time out and have to be relogged out and back on.

if you use a batch file to connect the mappings.... try the /persistent
switch

The problem is not with mapping. It is with logging on. It claims there
is no server. They do shutdown the workstations at night.
