Thanks guys - Duh yes its Win2k prof. on the workstations and win2k servers. OK here is the problem with the one guy who's drive is mapped with the script. He uses a program that accesses files on his Public drive. When he does not use it for I guess its somewhere between 15 and 30 minutes :) that the program crashes when he tries to use it again. It is a 16 Bit program that I believe is basically a DOS program. If he goes to explorer and double clicks the drive he can use the program no prob. He is just very annoyed with it. I guess I could tell him to go back to sharing the data from a win98 machine like he used to :) Anyone know of a drive stay alive program I can run TSR on his machine?

And you can safely ignore it. The mapping does persist, but the open network connection times out after 30 minutes of inactivity, which means less open network sockets, and therefore better scalability. You can safely ignore it. -------------------------------------------------------------- Roger D.
