No it's a 32-bit application (Delphi 5) We have been reading about what's new in Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 and it seems possible that we got a solution. Our customer has, or is about to, try this on one of the Terminal Servers today, we should know if it works in 24h. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q289509 "When tight loops of CreateFile and CloseHandle calls occur, the Windows 2000 SMB redirector may leak file handles. The CloseHandle calls return successfully, but the redirector does not actually close the handle. STATUS Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was first corrected in Windows 2000 Service Pack 3."

Hi! We have a customer with 500-1000 users running our application (60 systems) on a number (6-8) of loadbalanced Terminal Servers accessing 4 fileservers, after upgrading the terminal servers to NT 2000, files started to get locked up, preventing data from being accessed, this scenario didn't occur when using the prious version of Terminal Server. We had a similar problem in 1998-1999 when files remained locked for hours when sessions got disconnected caused by the default value of some parameter beeing set to 55 min.
