>BeShare will support an awful lot. Anyone know an upper limit? As far as maximum number of simultaneous users, the limit is determined by the FD_SETSIZE of the operating system that hosts the server. Under BeOS that number is 1024; it may be larger on other OS's but is not likely to be smaller. >Yes, that is the problem. It is beos native. you can't communicate with other when using for example >Solaris, Linux, freeBSD, Windows except you use the java client. Well, the Java client is usable under those OS's, and I have also seen a nice Qt-based BeShare client running under Linux... it was named "Enkroach" IIRC. Cheers, Jeremy :^)
