I have a Dell laptop running Windows XP Professional SP-1. It is connected to a Windows 2000 server. I store my data files on the server and backup to the laptop with offline files. The problem I have is my laptop frequently shows a warning “OFFLINE FILES – Working Offline. You are no longer connected to the server”, and it goes offline. The network connection is still enabled and working. It occurs more often when there is a data transfer to or from the server but also sometimes occurs when the laptop is idle. Any ideas?

I don't use Offline files (but since nobody else has responded to this post yet), so I'd suggest either manually synching the files, or else start looking at things in the Event Viewer logs to see if something is erroring out.
Maybe start a new post with any relevant info found in the log files...
