Share with user limit

[Guest]

Hi, all.
Who can explain me the following situation:
OS: WinXP
I have network share with User limit = 1.
When I start 2 application on another computer that copy files to share
simulteneously all work fine.

But when I start 1 application and 1 service that copy files to share
simulteneously 0x80070047 returned. Why? Service is running undo THE SAME
account as application.

Off hand I don't know the answer but your question is not really security
related and you may find more reponses in a networking newsgroup such as
Microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web. -- Steve

I'll posit an hypothesis:

Because both applications have been started by the same user, the host
computer counts the two processes as part of the same share.



This would be because the application is being run by the user
"Username," and the service is most likely being run by the user
"System", so the host computer sees this as two distinct users, which
equates to two separate attempts to access the share.
