I have a w2k server and recently added 3 xp pro
workstations. These workstations (no others) all share the
same problems.

1.)Mapped drives sometime take a minute or more to respond
after they have set idle for an undetermined amount of
time (not very long).

2.)MS Office files that are opened can be seen but are
uneditable for at least 30-60 seconds after opening

I have done everything listed in knowledge base articles
814112, 128167, 138365, 297684 as well as put all
critical, windows, and driver updates on the workstation
and server. Someone please share that crucial piece of
knowledge that I must be missing with me.

what protocols are you running and what is the setup of your home? e.g. DNS,
dhcp, protocols ..etc
 
Hi,

solution, plese please let me know!

Thanks!

I, as well, have the same problem. The reason I upgraded from XP Home
to XP Pro was my understanding that XP Pro integrated seamlessly with
Win 2K Pro. Obviously, that was crap.

Anyways, any help would be appreciated.

TIA,

I as well have this problem, and have tried all available kb articles.

This is the reason I upgraded to XP Pro from the Home version, I
understood that it integrated seamlessly with Win2K Pro. Apparently,
that is bullshit.

Ah well, the search continues.
