It is a preemptive, multi-tasking Operating System, which means that the Operating System controls allocation of CPU time, not the applications, stopping one application from hanging the OS. NT supports multiple CPU's giving true Multi-tasking, using symmetrical multiprocessing, meaning the processors share all tasks, as opposed to asymmetrical multiprocessing, where the OS uses one CPU and the applications another.

Q 2c-01: Will Windows NT communicate with DCE?

DCE Frequently Asked Questions
Windows NT comes with an RPC which interoperates with DCE RPC. Windows 95 apparently provides this interface as well. However, it is not quite the same as DCE. The wire-level protocol is the same as DCE RPC, so applications running on NT can communicate with DCE applications on other platforms. However, the application source code is not instantly portable. Microsoft changed the format of procedure names and moved the status result from a parameter to the function value.

Can I use PGP for Windows NT?

Soupermail Frequently Asked Questions
Under UNIX, there's a PGP command line utility (pgpe) which does the encryption. However, under NT, PGP 5 is GUI based only. PGP 6.5.1 brings back the command line, but I haven't got it to work in conjunction with Soupermail yet. All is not lost though, as you can use the DOS version of PGP 5 under NT. A couple of caveats; Use an up to date version of perl. Activestate build 509 hung when calling PGP 5, build 518 seemed fine.
