Network dropping offline

Hi,

I am running a Dual 2 Ghz Power PC G5 with 2gb of ram.

I have just recently decided to upgrade to Leopard and have run into a problem with my LANSHARE Network Storage Drive.

Under the old o.s. When ever my computer went to sleep at set time (after sitting idle for 30 mins) and I woke it up, my network would remain online.

Since I have done the upgrade, when ever I wake my computer up, I have a message telling me that "DEVICE REMOVAL - The device you removed was not properly put away. etc etc".

The usual message received when a drive is taken off line the wrong way.

But once the computer has fully awaken, the network drives mount themselves and everything is fine. The problem is, I don't want any damage to my network drive as it is being disconnected the wrong way each time.

As a side note. Last night I was uploading a large file. When I woke my computer up this morning, I noticed it had failed and it said connection error. So i am guessing that the problem relates more to the network shutting down when comp goes to sleep.

Any suggestions to keep the network active even tho my comp is asleep. This wasn't an issue under the previous version of O.S (10.4.9??) but is now.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Brad
