    Hello Sahanawaz

    It can be caused by the original set-up and configuration of the LAN being changed . You mentioned that it first worked properly. So what changed to the LAN setup?

    Or the set-up of one or more individual computers have changed.
    Did you already check the LAN access and sharing settings of each computer?

    Please do these inspections and report back here. Let me know by private mail (click my handle and follow instructiions) and I return here to advice further !

    Windows Workgroups are limited to 10 share connections only. So if you have a PC that is acting as a "server", only 10 shared connections can be made at a time.

    In order to increase this number, you will need to move on the next level of network licensing. Microsoft Small Business Server is designed for the small office in mind. It has a limit of up to 100 user connections and also adds functionality such as Exchange email server and ISA Internet proxy server.
