Change Number of users able to access a system

External Since: Dec 09, 2006 Posts: 6

I have a small network with 8 computers running XP and 2 running Win98. I
have 1 system that will not let more than 5 users to connect to it. I cannot
figure this setting out. Anyone have an idea? They all are set the same and
the drives are all mapped the same way. All others work but I just can't
find the right setting to change.

Thanks

What version of Windows XP is installed on the system in
question? Windows XP Home Edition allows 5 simultaneous
connections. Windows XP Professional can handle 10 connections.
For more info, take a look at the note in the Cause section of
this article.
