Windows XP Professional runs IIS version 5.1, which comes with a 10 connection limit. Often that's not enough when you are testing a site from multiple browsers (or multiple locations). You can easily increase the limit to the hardcoded maximum: 40 connections.

Make a command prompt window (start, run, cnd.exe) and issue these commands.
cd \inetpub\adminscripts
cscript adsutil.vbs set w3svc/MaxConnections 40
iisreset
 
The first command connects you to the adminscripts folder. The second command runs a script that sets the MaxConnections value in the IIS metabase to 40 (the maximum allowed). The third command (iisreset) shuts down and then restarts IIS.


got feedback?
Wow, great FAQ! You say that 40 is the hardcoded maximum; is this an OS limitation, or a limitation of the IIS version that comes with XP? jworden@brownsburg.k12.in.us Thanks!
