How to increase the number of requests to a file and its opening (LAN)?

Question

Windows

Hello. We have 6 PCs in one network. There is a file with base Microsoft Access. On each PC, people on the network open the file and work with it. Those. physically on 1 PC we launch a file from the local disk, from other PCs over the network. The problem is that if a file is opened on the local PC and 4 others, then at 5 when opening it throws an error: the number of connections to this PC has been exceeded (all PCs are running Windows XP Professional). Actually, google gave out a program with which you can increase the number of connections (standard 10, increased to 50) did not help. Actually, how can I fix this problem?

Answer 1

The limit on the number of simultaneous connections is a sore point for all XP users.
The installation of patched files helps to cope with this.
Here is a quote from the readme:
All of the following applies only to Windows XP SP2/SP3
To replace these files, you must boot into safe mode. Make sure that the server service is turned off (for example, by command cmd -> net config server ). Rename the srvsvc.dll and srv.sys files to %SystemRoot%\system32\dllcache (for example, to Xsrvsvc.dll and Xsrv.sys ) so that in case of failure, they can be restored. Replace the original %SystemRoot%\system32\DRIVERS\srv.sys and %SystemRoot%\system32\srvsvc.dll with similar files from the LanServerNoConnectionLimit.zip archive. After rebooting, you can check the maximum number of connections with the same net config server command.
You can increase the maximum number of open files by searching the registry for the string HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters and creating a new REG_DWORD string - SessOpens with a value greater than 16384.

How is the database accessed? SMB/CIFS, NFS? Is the PC on which the database file is also running Windows XP? Or did I parse your question incorrectly?
