Question Samba, opening files slow / fast


I have setup samba and I can access files on the Linux server from my Win 2k workstation. Opening, saving and closing files goes fine. However, if I don't access the server for a while (15-20 minutes) then opening a document takes about 10-15 seconds. Then if I keep opening and closing different docs, it speeds up and goes real fast.

Any suggestions what I can do?

Thanks

Sound like windoze is dropping the credentials on that connection. So after a while it has to resend the username/password. If that is true then...lose Windows. There probably is a regedit fix but something of that nature is outta my reach.
