I have an interesting issue. rather I should call this as confusing issue.
:-)
I have a small proto in my project, which should act as a server[runs on
XP], which essentially requests info and passes the info to another hardware
interface.
Since this is a non-critical piece, I simply had UNC Path to transfer the
info as XML. But even at my initial testing of the application, I had
bloopers
Issue: Windows XP Professional has a limit on simultaneous connections to 10
users, and XP Home Edition has a limit of 5 users.
Here is a Knowledge Base Article that describes this,
http://support.microsoft.com/default...2&ID=KB;EN-US;
Q314882
Fine.. So I thought I shall use TCP Connections, which definitely accepts
more than 10 simultaneous users, but when I read the KB again, I found the
following statement "The TCP connection limit is not enforced, but it may be
bound by legal agreement to not permit more than 10 clients."
So If I build the Application using TCP Connections, AM I BREAKING **EULA**
