Windows Vista Home Basic - Windows Vista Home Prem - Windows Vista Business - Windows Vista Enterprise - Windows Vista Ultimate - I believe you could theoretically connect 254 (or 256 I don't remember) - or there may be no actual limitation except for the impracticality of having more than 10-15 machines in a peer-to-peer network. Frankly, for that anything more than 10 boxen it makes the most sense to move to a domain-based network with a server. If what you really wanted to ask was "what are the inbound concurrent connection limitations", then they are the same for Vista as for XP: 5 for XP Home/Vista Basic/Vista Home Premium 10 for XP Pro/Tablet/MCE/Vista Business/Vista Ultimate 49 for SBS 2000 74 for SBS 2003 Unlimited for full Server O/Ses Note that the limitation is on *connections* and not *computers*. Each computer can - and often does - make more than one connection to a "server". If you have further questions, please let us know some details about what you are trying to do so you can get an accurate and useful answer.
