Idle sessions for machine networking not released (NOT related to RDP)

In a workgroup environment consisting of a Win 7 32-machine acting as a server and mixed 5 machine (Win 7 64 bit, Win 7 32 bit and XP), I get the following error message on any random on the network machine attempts to access a share on the Win 7 'server: '

"No more connections are possible at this remote computer at this time because there are already as many connections as the computer can accept."

In the past, I rebooted just the Win 7 'server' and it fixed the issue - for awhile.  Now, I'm tired of having to do it.

I completely understand what means this error (i.e. of 20 exhausted max connections) as well on the Win 7 'server' I went into computer management > system tools > Shared Folders > Sessions.  Wow!  A single Win 7 machine on the network had 15 of the 20 connections available, and all these connections had been slowed for days - some as long as the last reboot 15 days ago.

I restarted the machine and these 15 connections disappeared on the Win 7 server - as one might expect.

I run "net config server" on both this machine as well as on the 'server' of Windows 7 machine and it sees to the idle disconnect time 15 minutes on both.

Why these idle connections are not be released?  I'm not sure which side is to blame for hold on these - which side is disconnected?

I have a theory that somehow connections to hidden shares (for example, //xy-server/backup_machine1$) are initially that as a backup program (Macrium Reflect) uses these, but I'm not sure at this point.

Thank you.

  • When a user logs off Windows 7 x 64 session, the rest can not access the internet until the restart network card

    Hello! I found a problem with my system: when a user logs off Windows 7 x 64 session, the rest can not access the internet, until restarted network card. Reinstall NIC driver did not help. Problem appears on a built-in adapter, in the motherboard and a separate PCI card too.  Same router via its web interface is not accessible. Windows cannot automatically fix this problem after trying to diagnose a problem with his problem Diagnostic tool. After the diagnosis in the DETAILS window, MORE tests, it displays a message like this "computer remote can not receive a connection via the Internet (HTTP) Service Port". "Unplugging" a corresponding Local network connection and then reconnect solves the problem immediately. Switching between users, when two of them are connected do not cause this problem. Important: the problem occurs in the account of the user who was logged on the system FIRST after the PC was on, when the user disconnected on newspapers of a SECOND. If the SECOND user is logged in and the FIRST user disconnects, SECOND can still access the internet. It depends only on the sequence of the user's record, not on the particular user name. And one more interesting fact: after each user registered on and outside just for once, the problem seems to disappear until the PC is turned off and turn it back on!

    System details:

    Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77-VLK
    CPU: Intel Core i7 3770 K
    RAM: 8 GB

    Hi, Mahesh,

    and thank you very much for your help! Update firmware driver and router LAN did not help me get rid of my problem, but greatly improved my experience of networking in general. Anti-virus software was not guilty, also, but! I found the "iControl" network software, installed as part of Sogiciel 'AI Suite II' (that came on the CD of motherboard ASUS driverssoftware), runnning and causing not only the problem mentioned above, but would also decrease upload speed up to 0.3 MB/s, when download passes to nearly 100 Mbps! Moreover, searching the Internet, I have found a lot of complaints about the behavior of this software, so that people watch you the occasional installation of this piece... sweet ;) As "iControl network" has been uninstalled (not only turned off in the settings of 'Ai Suite II'!), I'm totally happy with my system performance.

    Best regards

  • Time Machine do not hourly backups on WD My Book for Mac new

    My 1 TB time capsule was too small for the full backup so I just bought a 6 new to WD "My Book for Mac" and have now a new back up, but it won't backup time as usual. I am running OS X El Capitan 10.11.6 Can anyone who thinks that the reason for what I fear not having a reliable backup. The problem with the new hard drive external or is - a problem with EL Capitan?

    Hello Arnaud,.

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. It is my understanding that Time Machine was not back up as expected. I certainly understand how it is important to be able to back up your content. I'm happy to help you.

    There are several factors that could influence the automatic backup. Please follow the steps in the link below to fix this problem:

    If you cannot back up or restore your Mac with Time Machine

    In addition to these measures, hourly backups could be affected by your sleep Macs and power Nap settings, depending on which Mac you use. To ensure that your hourly backups are finished, set your Mac sleep to a longer period time. For testing purposes, try to set the duration of sleep at least 1 hour. You can do this in system preferences > energy saver.

    In addition, if you use a portable Mac, make sure that it is connected to power during the tests to see if hourly backups work. See the link below to view information on how Power Nap works and how it can affect Time Machine.

    How Power Nap works on your Mac

    Keep in mind, that Time Machine backs up only files that have changed since the last backup.

    Have an amazing day!

  • Why Time Machine will not erase old backups when it needs more space for a new backup?

    I have problems with Time Machine.  I am running on an iMac (21.5 inch, end 2012) with a processor Intel Core i7 3.1 GHz and 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 memory.  My OS is El Capitan, 10.11.3 version (15 d 21).

    Backup disc neds 47,49 GB for backup, but only 39,98 GB are available.  Select a larger drive for backup or do

    the smaller by excluding the backup files.

    I thought that Time Machine was supposed to automatically delete older backups when there was not enough space on the backup drive.  Am I missing something?  Is that what I can do to diagnose the underlying problem?

    When you enter Time Machine, you see windows cascading over time. The foreground window represents the current state of the data and those behind it successive snapshots of data taken by Time Machine. Is there only a snapshot (i.e. one behind the windshield), or more than one?

  • I've set up another configuration of TCP/IP, but it does not connect. I need to access the 3 different machine networks. Any ideas?

    I've set up another configuration of TCP/IP, but it does not connect. I need to access the 3 different machine networks. Any ideas?

    original title: alternate tcp/ip

    If by "alternate TCP/IP configuration" you mean the settings on this screen--> http://tinyurl.com/42kbqqz, then, to quote Inigo Montoya, "you keep using that Word. I don't think it means what you think it means. »

    The 'alternative' configuration settings tab, if you select "IP address private auto" (APIPA) or "specified user" is only used IF "obtain an IP address automatically" is set on the tab 'General' (http://tinyurl.com/8p9hn) AND the adapter cannot get an IP from a DHCP server.

    Most cable networks use a DHCP server to automatically assign IP addresses.  In this case, just plug your Ethernet cable and you're automatically configured and connected.

    If the problem is that your network requires a static IP address (that is, they use a DHCP server to automatically assign IP addresses), you will need a third-party network settings manager.  If you have an IBM (Lenovo) ThinkPad, you can use "Dial-up connections." IBM Otherwise, see this Google search (I have no experience with any of the applications shown, so I can't comment about them): http://www.google.com/#sclient=psy&hl=en&source=hp&q=network+configuration+switcher&pbx=1&oq=network+configuration+switcher&aq=f&aqi=g-v5&aql=&gs_sm=e&gs_upl=23l1333l1l1599l12l8l0l0l0l5l278l1344l0.7.1l8l0&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp=74e371c96a48f4b&biw=1024&bih=649

  • Change the default profile for networks not identified in the register.

    Hi, I recently installed a copy of Windows 7 Home Premium. Recently, I tried to share files on a network computer to computer without router. I ran into problems with this, however, because Windows will just recognized here a network not identified, set its profile to the public and turn off sharing. I am aware that the default profile is editable through the local security policy editor, but being on the House, I am unable to access it, so my question is this:

    Is there a way to change settings of network profile for networks unidentified somehow outside the local security policy editor? (via the registry)?

    Hi Konaa,

    1. Click Start, type Regedit

    2. find hklm:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    3. find your network card adapter and create a dword value named "* NdisDeviceType" and change the value between 0 and 1 and enable/disable network cards.

    You can also try this:

    1. the Registry Editor open, if you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

    2. Locate and then click the following registry subkey:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Interfaces\ {GUID}

    This registry path, click the (GUID) subkey that corresponds to the card network that is connected to the network.

    3. on the Edit menu, point to new, and then click DWORD (32-bit) value.

    4. in the new area #1, type DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle and press ENTER.

    DhcpConnEnableBcastFlagToggle click 5.right, and then click on edit.

    6. in the value data box, type 1 and then click OK.

    7. close the registry editor.

    Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.

  • mouse without borders do not transition to the keyboard during the passage of virtualbox for machine B

    Hello

    I have the following Setup.
    Win7 computer has
    Accommodation Virtualbox Ubuntu 12.04LTS
    Win7 machine B
    Whenever I go to Virtualbox directly to Machine B, the mouse works without any problem, but the keyboard does not transition.
    If I tap the keyboard typing rest on the Virtualbox VM commands.
    The only way to transfer is as follows.
    VM VirtualBox, mouse slide for Machine A Win7 box, click on and then go to the B machine where you will now be able to type (keyboard finally transitions).
    Note that I have observed the same behavior with other virtual machines, such as Mint and CentOS. So I don't think it's a problem related to the virtual machine.
    Finally, I used synergy before and it doesn't have the same problem. There are a few advantages to mouse without borders that is why I would use it.
    Please advise,
    Thank you

  • Since the (all updates) update yesterday, I find one inactive (used only for vpn) network adapter waiting for DHCP Ip address. 1 minute. This should not happen.

    This adapter (or should I say windows) should not ask an IP address until it is in use. There is no difference if I disable it in Device Manager. I get the following error (ID 1001):

    Your computer not was not assigned a network address (by the DHCP server) for the network card with the address...    The following error occurred: 0 x 79. Your computer will keep trying... Since the server (DHCP).

    The MAC address is the MAC address of my "virtual" network card

    In the meantime my physical network adapter does not work. It seems windows is just to wait a response "who will not to pass" a DHCP server which unless I launch the VPN software is simply not going to work.

    I suspect that it is the result of an update that should not work this way.

    Any suggestion is welcome.

    Thank you.

    I would just add - it may be important for long-term understanding of the issue. In network connections, the VPN arrested projected map (still there in Device Manager). I see only the physical card. After removing both and reinstall the two becomes visible. The previously hidden map (vpn) becomes visible. It was not until the physical adapter has been reinstalled (logically). Personally, I have no idea why this I messed up. There should not be.

    Best regards, Dave.

  • DHCP is not enabled for wireless network

    Hi all

    I have problems with internet connection and a large part of the time, that Network Diagnostics says Windows "DHCP is not enabled for wireless network", then it solves a problem, but I lose the connection several times a day, and each time that do the same fix again.

    I checked the Device Manager settings and DHCP is started and set to automatic, I also ran CMD > ipconfig/all and can paste the results if need be.

    I use a VPN and never had any prior issued connection with it and it seems to be just as hard to connect if the VPN is enabled or disabled.

    Also recently I got the "security defender" virus which has been deleted successfully, the next day of the day it has been deleted, all network cards have messed up, I uninstalled and reinstalled them but that didn't work so I restored my system and that seems to fix the problem, my computer does not seem to run as fast after the virus as before so I wonder if it has an impact on my current problem.
