 +====== Unlimited connections for Windows ======
 +This one is simple: Say you have more then 20 peeps and as much PCs that need access to a shared folder. No file server eh? Well, there’s a way around it. You will break your client Windows OS EULA mind you, but sharing is caring so I consider this one being worth the risk.
  
 +Anyways, run Registry Editor (for those not knowing how, do this: press Windows Key + R, type “regedit” in the run command box and press Enter) and create a DWORD named **EnableConnectionRateLimiting** in **HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters**. Set Decimal or HEX value to 0 and you can share with the world!
 +
 +Or just merge this into your Registry.

 +<code ini>
 +Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
 + 
 +[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters]
 +"EnableConnectionRateLimiting"=dword:0
 +</code>
 +If you are to run **net config server** you’ll still get 20 connections max on your Win 7 machine, but don’t worry, that’s just for show. It works as expected.
