Win. XP Pro Autodisconnect Box

[DocHaydn]

Hello,
I'm running WinXP-Pro; and I need to disable
the autodisconnect box. I've done some research
and this is what I've found:
"Auto-Disconnect
Start/Run/Regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters. In the right pane, find Autodisconnect and change the time accordingly.
Or...
Start/Run/net config server /autodisconnect:30 (30 being an example). The valid value range is -1 to 65535 minutes at the command line. To disable Auto-Disconnect set it to -1. Setting Autodisconnect to 0 does not turn it off and results in very fast disconnects, within a few seconds of idle time. (However, the RAS Autodisconnect parameter is turned off if you set it to a value of 0.) "

Now! I've navigated to the Windows registry, and in the right hand pane I have:"Autodisconnect REG_DWORD 0x0000000f(15)". Question? What do I change, and to what.

Thank you.

The registry does not allow you to add a -1 value. However, that modification may be made at the command prompt with the following command:

net config server /autodisconnect:-1

What happens if you change the value to ffffffff, I'm not exactly sure of your question, have you come across these in your travels?
