IIS Client User Limit in XP Pro ?

[Guest]

Does XP Pro have a client limit of five for IIS ? I had thought that the client limit for MS Client OS'es was usually set to 10, but when running a webcast only five clients seem to be able to connect at a time. After that, any subsequent machines can only connect if one of the original five connections disconnects. Is this standard behavior ? Or is there a (bandwith/client/other) setting somewhere that would allow up to 10 clients or more ? Oddly enough, when running a webcam ( as opposed to a webcast ) this same XP Pro machine allowed 14 clients to connect - although the bandwith was so slow as to make it almost unviewable. TIA ...

XP Pro has a simultaneous limitation of TEN.... so if they are accessing
something else on your PC as well as the webcast, that would explain the
apparent lower limit.

Only way past this is the Windows 2000 Small Businesses Server (limit of
49), Windows 2003 Small Business Server (75 limit) or a full Server O/S...
no connection limitation.
