You have almost answered your own question.
2K pro has a built in limit of 10 connections.
Server does not have this limitation.
There is no way to up/break the limitaion in 2kpro.
You will need to purchase 13 cals when going to server.

If you are shareing to 13 different computers, P2P is a bad idea, IMO. Before the flames begin, I too, have 12 NT/W2K servers I administer.
That being said, I would recommend you download a copy of RedHat 8.0 from here:
ftp://kickstart.linux.ncsu.edu/pub/redhat/linux/8.0/en/iso/i386/
and then setup your server to run SAMBA.
If you need any help with setup/install/config of the linux box, please don't hesitate to send me and e-mail, I'd be glad to assist.

Wonderful way of ramming Win2k Server down your neck no?

While it's true 2k has the same basic engine be it pro/srvr/adv srvr. Each just has certain features enabled.
The general rule of thumb has always been less then 10 users can be in a p2p netwk.
(Although I disagree with it in today's climate, opting for the more strict client/server model).
If you have more then 10 connections you should be going to a server product anyways and take advantage of domain security.
