The Question is:
We are running a legacy application involving a DOS client running Tektronix
terminal emulation that requires maintaining Pathworks 4x and 5.x
compatibility. We are currently running Pathworks 5.0D. After viewing
wiz_2711.html, where an upgrade is advis
ed, is there any other way to get connectivity from NT workstations to the
Pathworks file shares?
I am getting 2 Messages "Connection attempt denied:" and "No more connections
can be made to this remote computer at this time because there are already as
many connections as the computer can accept".
I purchased an additional Pathworks CAL and installed it on the server but this
did not fix the problem.
What is the minimum Pathworks upgrade that would allow this NT workstation
connectivity?
The Answer is :
If you are to upgrade PATHWORKS, you will want to upgrade to the
V5.0F-ECO2 release for the V5 product.
The reported error indicates a lack of a license. There are
differences in how Microsoft Windows 95 and Windows NT clients
verify the presence of the PATHWORKS client license -- that these
two platforms show differing behaviours is (unfortunately) not
particularly surprising.
A Windows NT system can erroneously connect to the PATHWORKS file
server multiple times, resulting in the consumption of multiple
client licenses. (This misfeature is dependent on the particular
Windows NT service pack loaded.)
Additional information on the PATHWORKS CAL license will be required,
as the number of units will indicate the number of licensed clients.
Please directly contact the Compaq Customer Support Center for further
assistance and discussion of this.
