At about the same time each day, around 5pm, our workstations get booted from our server 2003. If we log back into the network we get right back in. We have AVG on our server but it's scheduled to run and update at 1am so I don't think that is the problem. Does anyone have an idea of why this happen? Thanks.

is there anything in the event logs of a workstation or DC around 5 PM?

Hi, I would like to confirm the following questions to clarify the issue: 1. Did the workstations start or restart around 5 p.m.? 2. Did this issue occur on all the computers or only a few computers? 3. What do you mean “our workstations get booted from our server 2003”? In addition to the above troubleshooting suggestions, I also would like to suggest you test the workstations in Clean Boot to check if there are any installed third party software conflicts. For the detailed steps of how to perform a Clean Boot environment, please refer to the following link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135 If the issue persists, would you please send me more information for analyzing.
