True, true. But that's a limitation in the EULA (and enforced in the OS for SMB/CIFS connections IIRC). Is it really a violation of the EULA to run a server service on a Windows client OS? I kinda doubt it.

I'm probabbly laying it on a bit thick, but the "client" flavors of Windows are positioned to be clients, not servers. There's a license-derived limit to how many connections they'll accept at one time, for example. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
