Max connections for SQl 2000 on Win XP Pro

Hi,
I'm a teacher in VB and use SQL 2000 on a laptop with Windows XP Pro.
My class has 20 students, can they connect to the sql database on my laptop?
Thanks inadvanced.
Danny
Greetings from BelgiumYes they can. I guess the students will be running very
small test queries against the sql server on your laptop.

Scenario 1: If students want to work on SQL Server .
You all must be within the same network/domain.
Install SQL Server client in their PC and then configure
the client if needed. Usually SQLServer Client identifies
the other Servers in the same domain automatically. If the
server is in different domain, then you have to configure
the client(Use Named Piped Protocol/TCPIP).
Scenario 2: Just if the students want to connect and query
the SQL Server database from VB applications, then use
ODBC connectivity in your application.
Hope this helps. If not, please reply with your questions
in detail.

Thanks for the quick answer.
Yes, its for learning ADO
What are the max connection for SQL server on XP Pro or Win 2000 Pro?
Is there a difference must I install Windows 2000 or Windows 2003 server on
the laptop for te connections to te SQL database?

All the students must connect to the same sql database on the laptop. The
students use ADO for the connection.
But my question was, can all the students (20) connect the same time on the
sql database.
Thanks for your answer

depends on the version of SQL Server you are using and the
limits of your application(s) and hardware. SQL Server
allows a maximum of 32,767 user connections.
Because user connections is dynamic (self-configuring
option), SQL Server adjusts the maximum number of user
connections automatically as needed, up to the maximum
value allowable. For example, if only 10 users are logged
in, 10 user connection objects are allocated. In most
cases, you should not need to change the value for this
option. By default , it allows maximum users.
2. Sorry. Your questions is not clear to me. Can you
expalin in detail?

I thought that a non-server OS has connection limitations. I surely had then years ago when students
tried to run against my machine. However, this might be IPC sessions (redirector/workstation) and
only apply to Named Pipes, whereas TCP/IP Winsockets is fine...?
