pikapan 0 Posted April 30, 2001 I've noticed a problem that I've been having w/ win2k networking. I'm currently on a LAN at school and have trouble browsing the network. For some reason, everything works fine for the first 3 minutes after I reboot. I can transfer files and view other computers over the network. However, once 3 minutes has passed, I can't access network neighborhood or my network properties. When I try to browse the network after the initial 3 minutes, I get a "Workgroup is not accessible; Handle is invalid" error. When I try to access my network card properties to view my protocols and stuff, I can get to the first menu where it shows general status and number of packets being received and sent. But when I click on properties to view the protocols and stuff, I get an "Unexpected error has occured" error message. I'm running Client for Microsoft Networks, Printer/File Sharing, TCP/IP, and IPX/SPX compatible protocols. I've tried re-installing them, but I still get the same error after the first 3 minutes.

pikapan 0 Posted April 30, 2001 Oh, never mind. I tried using the Net Config Server command and jacked up the autodisconnect values and now everything's working fine. Share this post Link to post
jaywallen 0 Posted April 30, 2001 Just one comment about using the Net Config command to change the autodisconnect timing -- this causes auto-tuning to be disabled. May or may not be important to you, but just wanted to be sure you knew it. Regards, Jim Share this post Link to post
