  • Setting session limits determines the number of simultaneous connections Macintosh clients can make to the computer running Services for Macintosh.

  • The number of simultaneous connections is limited only by the network media. However, limiting the connections can result in performance increases by the computer running Services for Macintosh.

Information about functional differences

  • Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
