limiting number of processes running simultaneously on win2k serve

I'm running a server application that open scheduled processes to numerous
devices running Perl scripts. Since the schedule is relative to the server
restart it often
happens that too many processes are activated on the same time throttling the
CPU of the server's machine.
Im getting errors 0xc0000142 on Perl.exe/Ping.exe processes.
I would very much appreciate help in limiting amount of processes running
simultaniously on the OS.

Thanks,
Dana.

Can you limit it programatically with the perl script? So that it checks to
see how many process are running and won't spawn a new one until it goes
under a threshold?

Yes I can, however in the short term i need to know if there is a way to
limit processes on the OS level.
