reset IPC$ number

[Guest Tester]

Hello there,

Is there a way to reset or decrease the number of IPC$ logged under

computer management, shared folders, shares on an XP machine?

My goal is to reduce the number of client connections.

I have an XP machine sharing some folders and although the number of

incoming PCs connecting to the shares is only 5 I am already getting

no more connections can be made to this machine error. I noticed the

IPC$ is high under the client connections, the shared folders

connections is normal. With only 5 PCs connected to shares I already

have 10 or more IPC$ counting against the client connections limit.

Thank you, T

Those are administrative shares, if you need a server, then I'd suggest

you use one.

Hi Brian,

The problem I am having a hard time answering why I was able to serve

4 shares off a windows 2000 Professional machine with 5...9 machines

working off these shares and now when I simply deployed an XP Pro

machine with the same shares, although on different partition D: I am

getting errors connecting to it with only 5 client computers so I need

to reboot it to clear the connections limit?

Until I cannot find an answer for this I cannot move to a server.

Thank you, T

Re: reset IPC$ number

 

Would reducint the idle time before a disconnect help?

 

Go to a cmd prompt and type

 

NET CONFIG SERVER

 

to see your current settings.

 

To reduce idle time try

 

NET CONFIG SERVER /AUTODISCONNECT:2

 

That would drop the idle connection after 2 minutes...

Hi there,

Yes, it helps I set it to 1 minute.

Actually the setting that helped the most was KB 328459[anonymous

shares].

Thank you, T
