XP Pro - Max Connections to a share

O

ochoco

Is there any way to increase the max connections of 10 on an XP Pro machine?
I have a shared folder on an XP Pro workstation that I'm using as a
temporary testing server and need 12 machines to connect to it. These
machines are Win 95 machines. After 10 are connected the other two cant
connect. Is there any way to increase the max number allowed?

No, 10 is the max.
( 5 for XP home. )

You need to get a server version of windows.

( or use win9x as the server, or a non-ms solution )
