To answer the 10 connection limit. I can`t speak for 2008 but 2003 had this same limit. It`s for *incoming* file connections only and is implemented to stop people using the server as a file server to users over the file system and does not affect connections to and through IIS.

Bill, thank you for your answers.

As for the 10 file connection limit, I can't seem to find it anymore on the Windows Server website. I guess I was imagining things :)

Hi Foobar -

By "local" database, I mean the database can be used for Web applications that are running on the same server. Windows Web 2008 is not meant for use as a database server, which accepts database connections from other remote servers.

I'm not sure what 10 connection limit you are referring to?

Hi Scott -

Windows Web 2008 doesn't block SQL server...but unfortunately SQL 2005 has a block in place during setup to prevent it from installing. The patch we are providing works around that block so that you can still use the same SQL 2005 setup DVD or install package you have. The only alternative would have been to re-release SQL 2005 with a modified setup, which would not have been very convenient for customers. :)

By "local", you mean that another server cannot access that instance of SQL Server?

Also, what's with the 10 file connection limit? Does this mean that if I have a NAS with WSS that the Web Edition can only have 10 simultaneous connections to it? Is that 10 connection limit per server, or is that a global limit?

If you haven't heard, the new Web SKU is a special, low-priced version of Windows that is focused exclusively

Why does it block SQL 2005 in the first place?
