What are the maximum number of client connections allowed by Ultimate? I foolishly set up a secondary print server on Vista Business, to take some of the load off the primary server. After spending ages trying to figure out why some machines were mapping the printers whilst others weren't, I realised that Business will only allow ten connections.
Everything's set up and it works fine until more than ten machines try mapping printers.

Edit - for confirmation, http://download.microsoft.com/docume...9cf5105718.pdf - check P12 of the EULA.
