Re: How many users/clients can connect to a VPN in Windows XP pro ?

I can find no information about how many users can login into a windows xp
pro computer that is functioning as a "vpn server".

Except for vague statements like: "site to site network" or "login remotely
to your work" etc.

I did find one website that mentioned that the maximum number of inbound
connections is 10.

So it could be that the loopback connection was malfunctioning and that it
is possible to have multiple users login at the same time... or maybe not...

Bye,
