I have a very small setup of 15 computers and i use my HP
laptop as a server with windows XP Proffessional to
connect the network. I could not upgrade to Microsoft
Server 2000 as it hung up whilst installing devices. Is
it possible that I can increase the number of Users from
a max of 10?

I cannot use a PC due to security Reasons.

Thank u.

No, I'm sorry, it isn't possible to increase the maximum number of
simultaneous connections beyond XP Pro's limit of 10 other computers.
