Far as I know, that's the only way to go.
There is no extended memory on a Novell server, and there can't be...
So, the nondedicated server is limited to basically a 640K workspace
minus drivers. And you can't use any of the load-high tricks you can
on a workstations.

TSRs may lead to problems, also.
