right click on My Computer and click on Manage. Here select "Shared Folders"
and then select "Sessions". How many sessions do you see? 5 or 10? If there
are 10 then you reached Windows XP limit and it can't be changed. If there
is 5 then click here on Shares and select your share. Open properties of the
Share and Check that under User limit it is set "Maximum Allowed" and not
any other setting.
The problem is that when I go to the share's properties,
I don't have that option, I can mark "Share this folder on
the network" and "allow network users to change my files".
I can't do alot about it unlike in win2k.
You can't.
Windows XP Home is hardwired for 5 max, Windows XP Pro is 10.
If you need more, you need a server operating system. http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=314882
Well if you upgrade the WinXP Home to WinXP Pro, you can have 10
simultaneous connections. If you need more than that, you'll have to
purchase and install a server OS.
