The difference is that NT server chokes with any more than 10 users. I.e. performance goes doen quickly. NetWare doesn't even have that problem with 100 users! Then, what would NT server give that IntranetWare 4.11 does not give? > >> I'm willing to accept that there is a buggy driver(s) which is > biting > >> many people, and causing them lots of instability. Well, you better try so serious networking and see how it hangs itself... Not even a blue screen! Don't worry, be Kneppie! Jan
