Vista share folder simultaneous users ?

[ftook]

I have been asked to develop a small access database for a company that has 15 vista machines (i think they have been installed with Vista home), i need to reside the master database on a shared folder in a pier to pier setup (lets say on master1 pc - shared folder dbase). There is a limit no. of simultaneous users selection in the shared options and is set to 5, does this mean that only 5 pier to pier pc's will be able to use the database at once ?

>does this mean that only 5..

very probably unless you can increase that number. I am using Vista Ultimate on which the maximum simultaneous users for a share appears to be 10.

And...
I don't know if is still an issue but you may like to watch out for

It appears Vista home basic is limited to 5 peer connections ref. the table at

all other versions 10.

Have a look at Bill Castner's comments in these threads. They may assist as XP and Vista connections limits seem similar.
