Ah - this is very interesting, thanks for pointing this out.

Using the registry setting here :

\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters

autodisconnect

and setting it to 1 (meaning 1 minute) I have perfectly
reproduced this client problem with Win98 client, W2K
server.

I thought they might have some heuristics to avoid running
into this bug themselves when talking to a Win98 client 
but no - it's just that their timeout on autodisconnect
is much longer......

This means we're completely the same as a W2K server in
this respect - we probably need to add a big warning message
to the timeout parameter on the man page, but I don't think
any code changes would help.

Jeremy.
