The registry editor

Quote:
Use Registry Editor to increase the default time-out period. To do this, follow these steps, and then quit Registry Editor:

1. Click Start, click Run, type regedit (Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003) or type regedt32 (Windows NT 4.0), and then click OK.
2. Locate and then click the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters

NOTE: The client side session is automatically disconnected when the idling time lasts more than the duration that is set in KeepConn. For this reason, the session is disconnected according to the less set duration value between AutoDisConnect and KeepConn. To modify the timeout duration in the client side during a UNC connection, specify the arbitrary time in KeepConn from registry value.
Locate and then click the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Service\lanmanworkstation\parameters
Value: KeepConn
Data type : REG_DWORD
Range : 1 to 65535 (sec)
Default value: 600 sec = 10 mins
3. In the right pane, click the autodisconnect value, and then on the Edit menu, click Modify. If the autodisconnect value does not exist, follow these steps:
1. On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click REG_DWORD.
2. Type autodisconnect, and then press ENTER.
4. On the Edit menu, click Modify.
5. Click Hexadecimal.
6. In the Value data box, type ffffffff, and then click OK.
