Hi,

We are doing a training and need 14 computers. All are running XP Pro or 2000 pro.

Our main computer is an XP Pro running SQL personal. When connecting all pc's to the shared folder on this pc we are getting the message "No more connections can be made to this remote computer at this time because there are already as many connections as the computer can accept"

I know XP has a maximum of 10 connections allowed, but is there any registry hack we can use to increase this number?

Thanks,

Brian
 
Most likely not. You should set up a domain controller now with Windows 2000 Server or Windows 2003 Server to solve your problems
