what makes a mapped drive vanish?

I can map a drive using "net use ... /persistant = yes" in the logon
script.
On rare occaision the mapped drive will just dissappear from "my computer".
Under what circumstances can windows remove a drive from "My Computer" ?
Is there any way to stop the drive from being removed ever?

As far as I know, the switch is /persistent:yes

At least the spelling ;)

You are corrrect and that is indeed what I have in the script.
Any idea what would make it just vanish?

My problems have been around since the begining of September. I have 1 user
a day get a disconnected network drive. This particular drive is mapped to
z: in the AD user and Computers snapin. A simple reboot fixes the issue.
Win 2000 clients did not have this issue. Most of the time things work well
but... See my posts other posts for more detailed information. For me I am
wondering if

is really not as fixed as they say it is in SP2?
