At work we have a bunch of sites hosted on our development server. The folder containing all these sites is mapped as a network drive.
In VisualStudio I open the root of the site as a WebSite and when I build the site I alwys get this error.
Error 4 An error occurred loading a configuration file: Failed to start monitoring changes to 'I:\Sitename\wwwroot\' because the network BIOS command limit has been reached. For more information on this error, please refer to Microsoft knowledge base article 810886. Hosting on a UNC share is not supported for the Windows XP Platform. I:\Sitename\wwwroot\web.config
I've checked out the KB article and made the registry changes it suggests but this didn't help.
Does anyone know of a fix or workaround for this?
Thanks

Instead of using a mapped drive, use full UNC path and give your current logged in user access to that path:
\\MachineName\Sitename\wwwroot\web.configChances are high you will get a different effect from that , especially if the Mapped drive was being mapped with different credentials.
