It has been a while since this was an issue I was trying to solve (last year), I'll try that though. If I discover anything, I'll let you know.

The problem is that the end users never report the "problem" any more so I only discover it when I happen to connect to a system remotely that has the symptom.

Paul,
Your experience mirrors mine. I have nearly 100 workstations, a mix of Win7 and 
WinXP
(and a couple of Win2k) and the Win7 workstations tend to drop the network map 
links
frequently. The users have stopped contacting me about and have learned to just 
open
WinExplorer, click the drive with the little red x and wait a couple of seconds.

I've tried using Windows Scripting to remove, then remap the drive link if the
mapping is not active, and that also throws errors. It seems that the only 
method
that works every time without throwing an error dialog box is to open 
WinExplorer,
and click on the drive letter with the little red x.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'd really appreciate it.

Have you tried going to the network adapter properties and turning off power
management on the adapter?

Paul
