Hi
Can anyone help
I am using Samba 2.2.2 on Sco Unix 5.06
The problem is that we have been using 1.9 for a long time to provide 2
networked drives for clients to use without any problems.
Now that we have moved to 2.2.2 to make use of latest facilities ( not
least allow W2000 clients) we get a problem that when the client boots
their machine up any shares that are set to reconnect at login are not
available for about 2 minutes.
ie switch on, login, wait 2 minutes - OK
   or switch on, login, try to use it - drive not available!

This is the smb.conf file:
