I have a desktop with Vista Ultimate and a laptop with Vista Home. After a
while the desktop starts refusing network connections claiming "no more
connections available".

A check in Computer Management on the Desktop reveals there are 10 open
connections from the laptop. Most have # Open files set to 0 but several are
set to very large negative integers.

All of them fail a close session request with "Error 2: The system cannot
find the file specified"

Only fix seems to be a reboot of the desktop. The problem eventual reoccurs.

This is highly irritating! Any know fixes?
 
duh ... should have thought of that myself ...

but ... didn't work anyway. :-(

"net stop server" fails when it attempts to stop dependent service Computer
Browser. Att

Just to make it more fun, Computer Management reports the connections have
been idle for 30440 days (yes - 83 years!)

Do I get a prize for copy of Vista with best continuous uptime? :-)
