I have three servers in my office...

My netware-novel server has been running for 2 years now with no
shutdowns...

My two NT Servers have frozen up... reboots... Blue Screen of Deaths and God
knows what but it has been running for 2 weeks now!

WIn95/98 machines well my users allways switch them off when they are off
from work!

are two distinct operating systems, correct?

  It might be a confusion between Linux (OS) and X (windowing UI, not specific
to Linux, but to Unix in general, but we all know how people confuse Unix and
