Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 with NT Option Pack Server Pack (5-Client) Reviews
I got a copy from what was the used section. It was like new.
Productivity that is based on a stable operating system and clients. It has been the experience of many pre-existing NT based firms that the real cost effectiveness lies in productivity. Windows NT Server is a highly scalable, reliable and available operating system that meets the requirements of the overwhelming majority of the enterprise and medium size business-computing needs for data management, messaging, transaction processing, Internet services, and file and print infrastructure. Supported by a significant majority of the world's systems providers, Windows NT Server also offers customers (if you're the firm installing the system) with an integrated, multipurpose and cost-effective operating system.One can argue that Windows 2000 Server would be more cost effective but only if you're starting a system out from scratch.
Each time I update the software, I have to reboot the server to release the object that already loaded in the memory. I have been programming activex in NT for years. Even though I did a set object.close and set object = nothing, sometimes it didn't kill the process successfully. Other than that, I think NT is ok.
Why would spend money on soon-to-be obsolete NT 4.0. Go for 2000 server, it will save you money.
Even for the seasoned UNIX user, NT's permissions can be some what cryptic. We are a shop that runs both a variety of UNIX platforms as well as NT 4.0. NT, while providing a nice graphical environment, still lacks much in the way of reliability and flexibility. We have used this product for over 3 years and have been mostly satisfied with its performance. Record locking can be a real nightmare, often requiring the reboot of the server to release a record that has been locked. Still overall, it is a fairly solid performer.
