We have been having the same problem at our school but it's not only with
wireless, wired units are doing it as well. We were using Apple Airport
Base Stations and now we have an Xirrus A/B/G wireless network running. The
units (25) in the lab that are wired are connected through Netgear 10/100
switches. We are using Workgroup Manager as well in an OS 10.4 (server &
client) environment running eMac's, iMac's and MacBooks.
Same type of setup I would assume. We do have the home directories
automount.
Solution is always to just have the student restart the computer before
he/she tries to login but that's a pain when you have very limited time in
class with them.
