I have Windows NT Server 4.0 Service Pack 6. Workstations are Windows 2000 Pro & Windows 98 SE. When I login as administrator I can access any server's map drive from any station. But when I login as a user then I can not access the map drives and it gives me the error: No more connection can be made to this remote computer, All connections are already in use by this server. This is when I try to make the map drive for an user.

I read in microsoft that this error could be that the license must be changed from per server to per seat. If this is the problem can someone explain me how to change it?

I will appreciate any help on this.

You can change it in Licensing Manager under administrative tools. Read up on concurrent connection licenses on Microsoft's website to make sure you stay in license compliance.

In per server mode, the server will only allow so many concurrent connection to it. Server usually shipd with a license for 5 connections. When the 6th workstation tries to connect, it gets an error like you described. The server probably over looks it when you use an administrator logon.
