Yes, agreed.  

The other option would be for me to just move the shared directory to an 
existing Windows Server and keep everything running as is (on the Windows 7 
32-bit VM).  The only reason I am not crazy about that idea is that means there 
are now (3) separate VMs/systems needing each other for the BBS nodes.  

It seems to root of the problem is Windows non-server only allows a total of 20 
connections for a share.  For some unknown reason, Samba on eCS and ArcaOS use 
4 connections for each BBS node.  On the event that I hit the 20 connection 
limit, JFS crashes and the eCS VM dumps.

If I move this share to my Windows Server, no more connection limit for a 
share.
