Windows NT4 Server (last update to the NT4-Server FAQ: Dec. 15 , 2001)

If you think as "Windows NT4 Workstation" being the "Big Brother" of Windows95/98, then you need to think of "Windows NT Server" as the "Very Big Brother" (because it contain a lot more components than NT4 workstation) !

I am now also having a look at Windows NT4 Server: the server software is loaded and running, I am now starting to play with it to gain experience and will add pages to my website, once I feel comfortable with a topic.
