What about Microsoft SQL Server? SQL server runs only on NT. Got no choice. I'm not sure if there is an Netware version of Sybase. You may not have a choice here either.

If by application server you mean providing files to clients, Netware is by far faster than NT. If you mean writing applications to run on the server, NT is easier. framsey@goodyear.com; CIS 71631,1032 - CNE, CNA-4, PE --- EZPoint V2.2 * Origin: -- A Point on Pine Lake (330)-796-3146 -- (1:157/603.70) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 194 NOVELL Ref: DDL00010 Date: 09/15/96 From: FRANK RAMSEY Time: 09:58pm \/To: TORE HANSEN (Read 5 times) Subj: Re: CHANGERS & SYNTHETIC TIME TH> I had the synthetic time messages pop up on a solitary NetWare 4.1 TH> server with no WAN or LAN connections to other servers, after a botched TH> attempt at installing "Arcada Backup for NetWare".
