Windows NT 4.0 Server, service pack 6a. HP Jet Admin tools and services installed.

Does anyone know how many HP JetDirect TCP/IP ports can be created on one server before it crashes? Disk space and RAM are not an issue.

my pdc is a pII 400, 256 RAM
i have 15 ports and haven't had a single problem for almost 4 years now.
bascially, i don't think the number of ports is the issue, it's where your spool file is located and how much ram you have.

Actually, I found the answer later in an old MCSE book for NT4. You are able to have 225 Hp TCP/IP ports however HPMON.dll is defaulted to allow 64. A registry edit brings it up to 225.
Thanks anyway!
