Can't connect to database - 0 connections permitted?!

[Topher]

So I have a database that's being shared by FM server 9 and it's worked for awhile now. All of a sudden the other computers in the office can't open it. When they go to Open Remote they see the host computer in the left hand box but not the database file in the right hand box when they click on the host.

What's going on?

I checked the server software and all systems were normal, but one thing seemed very strange to me under one section it said "Filemaker server permits 0 simultaneous Filemaker Pro connections."

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Something is clearly odd here. Close all files. Stop services. Reboot machine. See what that does. Also be sure that in the file, the flag to block display of file's name has not been checked.

Also, be sure that Port 5003 is opened for the server.
