ORA-00020: maximum number of processes (%s) exceeded

 Keep getting this error on our DB.  have increased the processes several times. Keep hitting the limit.  realize it's open db connections causing the problems. have lowered sqlnet.expire_time.  should we changed from a dedicated server to a shared?

we're hitting this limit with only about 20 users on the system

Howdy, Stranger!
