Problems using WinXP as LAN server

I have a question about Connect
to a Windows XP or 2000 system with a Windows 95, 98, or Me system over a Network:
I am about to uninstall WinXP from a new PC only because it won't work as a server
for a 25-station peer-to-peer network. I'm told XP only accepts 10 incoming logins.
Is this really correct? Is there some fix or network setting that I'm missing? I'd
rather not change the OS unless really necessary. All other PCs on the network are
running earlier versions of Windows (95-2000). Thanks.

That is correct, W2K Pro and Win XP will only handle 10 Clients. In order for you
to network with more clients you must run W2K Server. I'm not saying it isn't possible
only that you'll have more headaches that you can do without.
