Connections to Shared Printer on W2K Pro

G

Geddy

I have several users who print to a shared printer on a
W2K Professional workstation, however, I have recently
started receiving the following message:

"Windows cannot connect to teh printer, No more
connections can be ade to thsi remote computer at this
time because there are already as many connections as the
computer can accept."

I have never read of a limitations to connections to a
shared resource and believe this to be caused from
something else.
Anybody have any ideas?

TIA

Win 2k pro, as with all other MS operating systems other than the "Server"
versions, only 10 concurrent connections are allowed.

Time to move to a "true" server operating system.

Ditto on Danny's comments.....10 is the magic number for
sharing resources on the Windows Desktop operating systems.
