There are no CAL involved with Windows 10. That only applies to Windows Server. There is no legal or technical way to increase those limits on Windows 10.

QUOTE(imperialrealcs @ Jul 5 2020, 09:15 AM) understood but my main concern is, does windows 10 only accept max 20 PC connection at a same time? what's the limit as in usage for that? u got any details? https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/d33de0fe-ba31-459a-8a43-201875c9ebe0/max-concurrent-connection-limit-on-windows-10-license-servers?forum=win10itpronetworkingi.e. the 20 connection limit by devices? or number of connection? or etc?  Based on what I can find, it looks like network connection. Not PC. A PC may open multiple network connection when connecting to a computer. |

QUOTE(imperialrealcs @ Jul 5 2020, 08:07 PM) i've read about this but one of the poster wrote this: If your user needs to read a file directly from a shared folder in order to run the program, it would fall under file services. "The EULA clearly states the limit is 20 *devices* NOT TCP connections, and it's only a limit on devices connected to "file services, print services, Internet information services, and Internet connection sharing and telephony services" so in my case im hosting a file (which is a database) on a win10pro server. which service am i actually using? If you use an IP address and port number to connect to the database, you should be outside of the limitation. The database would be the one reading the file directly and serving out via it own service. Unless you know to monitor the network connections to PC acting a server, proving it would be an issue. |
