Justly I just arrived at a Lab that has many wondows boxes and I need linux
for my work so I installed SL Linux 5.5 as double boot with VISTA and in all
machines with double boot windows-linux the network is lost periodically. All
the PCs have USB wireless probe. I am new in the Lab but at the time I am
writing this email i did not check yet the wrieless source.
Thank you, rachid.

Hello,
I have a problem with the (exported) sharing of network resources.
Initially i've used a sever with RedHat 7.3 kernel 2.4 now i've installed
Scientific Linux 5.5 with kernel 2.6.18-194.32.1.el5PAE with Samba version
3.0.33-3.29.el5_5.1.
The problem is that I lose the network connection periodically, about 10
minutes!
I initially thought the problem was caused by a misconfiguration of samba
version of sl, that I installed on a client machine with windows 2000 the
"Microsoft Windows for Unix" in order to use nfs connection exported from
linux server, but the problema arise equally.
It's a serious problem for me because the disconnection of a mapped drive
on w2k (connected via smb or nfs) is causing the crash of a basic
application that tries to detect the presence every second of a new file in
shared resource.
This problem was not present with the older version of linux !!!
Thanks in advance for your help.
