Tell you friend that he is an idiot.

I administer over 450 NetWare servers, about 99% of them 4.11. There are
also a dozen NT servers. General uptime on the NetWare servers surpasses
the NT ones. Plus for data-access the Novell FS outperforms NT's quite on a
few times...

NetWare + FreeBSD = deadly combo...
