Windows file sharing sucks. It likes to hang at the drop of a hat.
Here's a script I use on XP to prevent it from hanging up.
I present: smackwin.bat

echo Smacked Windows...

Pretty good use of the CPU.
Not really. I'd rather the CPU were running Linux ...
The problem I have is that all of the compiling, debugging, etc. is
being done on a Linux machine.
The Windows box just needs to test that the Windows executable runs on
Windows. For regression, it runs the executable about a dozen times.
About 1 in 4 times, Windows decides to take forever on the SMB file
share and blows the test.
This script seems to keep the net connection active so that the
regression tests don't time out.
