Inbound Connection limitJust realised I have posted this incorrectly elsewhere.
Is the 10 connection limit for all TCP/IP traffic or specifically for file sharing? I am thinking of putting a Domino server on a system that has XP installed and was wondering if XP would be able to cope with the clients connecting. I have read the link to the MS KB article, 314882, and it's not clear. DavidAdams65 wrote:

There are no plans to use this box for file/print. using, but according to IBM, Domino Server 8.0.1 requires Windows 2003 Server SP2 (or 2003 Server x64): http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=899&uid=swg27011238 The same appears true for the other Domino versions I checked quickly: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=463&uid=swg27007909 If you want to try using XP, perhaps you should be asking this in a Lotus/Domino forum instead. The MSKB article is pretty clear: "The connection limit refers to the number of redirector-based connections and is enforced for any file, print, named pipe, or mail slot session. The TCP connection limit is not enforced, but it may be bound by legal agreement to not permit more than 10 clients." Thus, the question you need to answer is "Does a Domino server use "redirector-based connections" or "file, print, named pipe, or mail slot" sessions? And even if technically feasible, does your company want to be in breach of whatever "legal agreement" that KB article refers to? -- Lem -- MS-MVP To the moon and back with 2K words of RAM and 36K words of ROM. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Guidance_Computer http://history.nasa.gov/afj/compessay.htm
