How to increase the Maximum number of connections to a remote computer?
I have a lab of new Vista (Business) machines. I'm sharing a printer that's connected locally on one of the (Vista) PCs. The machines are all in the same workgroup. In order to avoid any issues of not being able to "see" the remote printer, I have a script that runs at login on each machine, creating a mapped drive to a share on the machine that has the printer.
On only a few machines, I'm getting the following error when I try to map the drive:
No more connections can be made to this remote computer at this time because there are already as many connections as the computer can accept.
What is causing this error and how can I increase that limit?
Thanks

Try turning off "License Logging" in the services on the machine that has the printer.
ASKER
There is no "License Logging" service on the machine that has the printer. Attached please see a Word document containing a series of snap-shots of all the running services.
