>I have a situation that I have been strugling with for about two months now. I have an Application Center which is running several VFP and VB Com components. These components are accessed by a web server and other apps via SOAP for the front end. On the back end for data we access SQL Server and FOX tables. My fox tables are on a WARP server which is connected to several client server apps and a telecommunications switch. The tables are fox 2.6 native.

When I bounce my Application Center everything comes back to normal and people with client server apps and app center can connect with no problems. Therfor I asume that App Center is locking connection objects to Warp.

I don't know anything about Warp, but is it possible it's licensed on a connection basis? You might have only 7 connections yourself but the other C/S apps and/or telco switch app(s) may count as connections as well.

Do you need to use NetBEUI? Could you use TCP/IP instead?
