The network BIOS session limit was exceeded

[Peter]

I have a C# program that checks directory on a UNIX server and once in a
while I get the following error 'The network BIOS session limit was
exceeded.' if I log off and log back on the error goes away. Does any one
know what is causing this error or how to prevent it?

It sounds like you're not closing or disposing of something and it's holding
the session open indefinitely. Without seeing some code though, it's
impossible to say for sure.

This is the line that's getting the error.

return System.IO.Directory.GetFiles(filePath, fileMask);

But what could cause this error, even when I close the program and try to
open the folder with Windows Explorer I get the same error until I log off
or reboot?

The error in Windows Explorer only occurs after my program gets the error,
but I can close the program and the error keeps popping up in Windows
Explorer.

So you can produce this error simply using Windows Exlorer? Or does it only happen from your application? In other words, if you browse the same folder from Explorer a number of times, will you eventually get the same error or
does it only happen if your program is run first?
