We run maximum 15 computers on an office network using a workgroup with XP
Pro as well as some Win 98SE and Win 2000 Pro. One computer acts as a server
for our bookkeeping program, the latest Pastel, with a 5 user licence. We
frequently have corrupt file problems and it has been suggested that it is
because Windows XP Pro cannot handle more than 10 computers on a network.
The 5 user Pastel licence obviously allows only 5 users at any given time,
which is sufficient for our needs. It has been suggested that we should
switch to a proper server with server software. Any comments, is this valid?
