[Discussion] Printing from a Windows computer

[Stratton McAllister]

Our home network is built around two computers that run under eCommStation
1.2.  The two printers are connected to one of the two eCS computers and
are used from the other computers through PEER.

One of the other computers in the house, a Windows 2000 ThinkPad (T30), is
occasionally connected into the network to transfer files and use the
printers.  I even have one Windows application on the ThinkPad that is
actually physically installed on a disk on one of the eCS computers, the
one that doesn't have the printers.

I haven't been using the ThinkPad much recently, but I just connected it
into the network to use that multi-computer program.  It runs fine.

However, I get into trouble when I try to print from the ThinkPad.  In
fact, whenever I try to access anything on that eCS machine, I get the
Windows message

   "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."

Can anyone tell me what this can mean ?  I assume that the "computer" at
the end of the message is the "remote computer", the one with the attached
printers.  It sounds like there is something wrong with how that computer
is set up.  As far as I know, I haven't made any configuration changes to
either of the eCS computers since I last used the printers from the
ThinkPad -- which must have been several months ago.

Any ideas what I should be looking for ?  If I should be asking this
question somewhere else, can someone suggest where ?  I don't follow any
Windows lists, so I have no idea where to go if this is a Windows problem.

Many thanks

Stratton
