That happens to me too, but the connection _is_ actually restored after I kill the error message (despite what it says), so I just ignore it. Rather annoying though.

The domain controller is samba 2.2.8a. When someone logs on the login script maps a few shares to drive letters. Recently the drive mappings started getting disconnected and when pressed they print out the error: "An error occurred while reconnecting to [Drive Letter]: to \\server\share. Microsoft Windows Network: The local device name is already in use. This connection has not been restored." Can anyone please explain why this happens and how I can prevent it?
