"the network bios session limit was exceeded"

I have a network disk which works just fine if I use Windows XP Pro SP2, but
when I, after a while, have accessed it from Windows Vista Ultimate it gives
me the error

"\\mydrive

The network bios session limit was exceeded"

Why does this happen and how can I make this problem go away without having
to reboot my PC?

Please see my answer to your post in the other newsgroup to which you
posted. I asked you a question which needs to be answered to continue
the troubleshooting path.

Please don't multipost; it makes more work for everyone and will get you
*less* help, not more. See this for why:
