Not sure about this, don't remember ever using it.

Well now. Equal to NT? Try better than NT. Equate it to NT Server? Sure. The
advanced supports HPFS across the network (you know, what MS calls NTFS now)
and some other slick features. As far as a network server, you can't do much
better, and yes, you need to install that over OS/2 Warp V4.
