Business Contact Manager 2003

[Alan@select]

I work in a small business and we have eight desktops that all have 2003
Office Professional with Business Contact Manager (BCM). We initially had
four desktops linked so that we could share databases in BCM and it worked
fine. However when we added additional users we have encountered problems.
First, when I try to create a new database I get the message, "There are no
more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper." Is there an maximum
number of users that can share the databases?

Second, when I try to add users in the "Share a Database" section I then get
a message that states; "An error occurred while applying your changes. Your
changes have not been applied successfully." It won't allow me to share the
databases with others (Previously I was able to share the databases). In
addition I have created databases on my desktop and they can't be seen by
other desktops.

I realize I'm asking several questions but I'm at my wit's end. Any
assistance would be greatly appreciated.
