I have two Windows Server 2008 SP2 machines (TFS and TFSBUILD). Periodically, the TFSBUILD server shares (\TFSBUILD\ShareName or \TFSBUILD\C$) become unresponsive to requests from Windows Vista (Server 2008) and Windows 7 client requests. Windows XP machines are still able to connect.

No events in the server log indicate any problem. A simple restart corrects the issue temporarily, but it always returns.

No, it is not this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976266 (we aren't using that software).

All anti-virus software has been disabled, firewall is disabled by policy. No other network activity is affected.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
