Max Sessions on an XP workstation?
Hi, I have several XP workstations in our domain that contain disks configured for sharing. The workstations are all on the same network/domain which is served by Win2K Server. - What's the maximum number of connections (sessions?) that can be supported by XP when its sharing a disk? - Does a "Remote Login" session count as one session? - What's the definition of a "session" anyway? - Is there any way to automatically delete connections that have been idle for a specified period of time? Thanks Lou P. |

Thanks Lou P. Lou, The Microsoft article should answer all these questions: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=314882 -- Cheers, Chuck Paranoia comes from experience - and is not necessarily a bad thing. |

Thanks Lou P. 10 concurrent connections. Remote Desktop is one connection, but I don't know that it counts. My advice - don't store any data locally, don't create workstation shares, don't grant users local admin rights (so they can't do this themselves) - store everything on the server, and manage everything centrally. Keep workstations as identical/vanilla as possible. The whole point of a domain model is centralization, the way I see it. |
