Question Win2K peer to peer sharing

Does Win2k only allow 10 users to share a folder over a peer to peer network?

If so what is the best way to work around this? We have a classroom that has one teacher pc and 15 student pcs.
We didn't have this problem before we setup a new teacher machine with Win2k.

Please advice
TRS

The only way I know of to work around it is a dedicated server with a server OS. Win2K Pro has a 10 connection limit to prevent users from actually using it as a dedicated server.

I was afraid that was going to be the case.

Thank-you glc for the quick response.
