well, MS is trying to tackle P2P file sharing and limiting max connections for TCP/IP to 10 half-open.

just run the Event ID 4226 Patcher and the limit will be set to 50 (default) ... or whatever number suits you.

note: use at your own risk ... after the next automatic windows update, you may have to apply the patch again :)

As I understand you correctly if I will run this patch - set it up for 20 users than I would be able to connect 10 users at one time so all limits are devided on half???

I just don't get MS - why they do you a 10 users limit if you can not have 10 users connected to one share

comming back to my problem - I'm testing it at work and I get already 6 users to connect to my share - so why I can't do that on another machine which is exacly this same ?
