Is their a default timeout period the OS waits when accesing a network share?
Can this value be changed?

Thanks,

How to change the auto disconnection settings

My win2k keeps losing network connection whit red x and then re-connect after click it

A: you can change autodisconnect time. For example, if you want to setup autodisconnect time to 30 minutes, do net config server /autodisconnect:30.

Thanks for your response but I guess I didn't explain myself right.

My problem is I get a delay after login in when the network share is not
available. I believe it is trying to connect to the shared folders. I think I
have seen something about the OS waiting for 1 min 10 sec or 2 min to contact
the share and then it timesout. This is the time I'm looking to reduce.

Thanks,
