X's over mapped network drives

A

On my Windows 2000 Professional workstation I get red X's
over the mapped network drives. This happems about 15-20
mins after booting up. If I double click the mapped drive
with the red X I get right into it without having to enter
my network password. I did change the autodisconnect
registry entry to -1 using a command line, but the red X's
keep showing up after a while. The server is a Windows
2000 Advanced Server. My PC does a tape backup of the
network drives at night and it appears to be halting
because of the red X status. Is their something else I can
try on my workstation, or on the server itself?
