Sessions Module in Shared folders console

[Steven Reed]

Why would 1 user have 2 sessions open but only showing one
user name, the other user name is blank and both sessions
show the same computer listed? Is this a replication
problem? Reason for question: I have a Windows 2000 peer
to peer network with 7 users linked to 1 computer(server).
All machines are running Windows 2000 professional. The
shared drives are set up as a limit of 10 users. Sometimes
the drive mapping on the last computer to boot up will
say "An error occurred while connecting M:to \\Wr-
sgtabml\DDrive\Myfiles\ACCESS
Microsoft windows Network: 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.
This connection has not been restored.

Hi Steven,
Services or Application may spawn different sessions to the folder.
We run into this question alot when people are using W2K Pro systems as
servers and have 10 computers in the office. In most cases all 10 systems
will not be able to get a connection.

Thank you,

Alan Wood[MSFT]
