Windows NT 4.0 Server. |
 |
| This operating
system is designed for robust scalable networks based on domains.
Where servers are required to handle more than 10 clients, NT Server
is the best choice of operating system. It has been especially
optimized to give good performance as an application server, and has
additional tools to ease network administration problems.

·
Dial-up networking

Easy file and print
sharing over a router (such as between branch offices)

Windows NT 4.0
Server is usually your best option if you need:
·
Dial-up networking
that gives clients access to your network
·
An application server
·
A high performance
file and/or print server
·
A print server that
shares AppleTalk printers
·
File and print sharing
for UNIX computers
Windows NT 4.0
Workstation, Windows 95, or Windows for Workgroups may be a solution
if:
·
You want peer to peer
networking
·
No more than ten
clients will access any resources on one server at a time
·
Most of your work
involves applications and data stored on the client PCs, and working
with data files over the network is the exception rather than the
rule
·
When you open files on
another user's computer, that other user can afford to have
productivity applications slow down
