Network problems in Win2000
-
Hi, I have installed Windows 2000 Professional on my machine and now I am facing a very strange problem. I am not able to run my applications that use windows sockets to connect/listen to connections from other machines. I am able to make atmost 2-3 connections only at a single time. I am also unable to browse the network from windows explorer when some connections are already made. The error that I receive is 'Insufficent quota of resources exist'. Can anyone tell me what the problem is and how to solve it? Thanks, Krishnan

I can`t tell you what the problem is, only that I know a good few people who have experienced terrible trouble getting win2k to network properly, particularly when other OS's are connected. There is a non-descript delay in connecting the network upon startup, amongst other reports of high latency and failure to browse whole sections of the network. My advice is to try using a different OS, I`m using Win XP RC1 (I have RC2, but can`t be bothered to re-install it for such a minor upgrade in performance), and it is sh**loads better than win2k in my opinion, networking is a dream. If you really want it to run on win2k I think you`ll be in it for the long haul (but maybe I`m wrong!). Alan. "When I left you I was but the learner, now I am the Master" - Darth Vader:mad:
