This will always be a problem since file handles are shared with windows
and can't be greater than 255 total. The DOS program is severely flawed
if it needs more than a 100 or so.

You can try the "Extended file handle" support or some such setting in
the client 32 advanced settings. This supports more than 255 but only
for programs written to use it.
