>Win 98 will be replaced by Win NT 5 in the next year, so I'd be willing to bet the problems in Win 95 you are encountering still exist in Win 98.

While I agree that Win95 is not the best OS for an application server (and NetBEUI is not the most robust protocol), unless the users are hitting the 'server' hard, it should be able to keep up.

I'm curious about the network layout (10b2, 10bT, etc), what kind of NICs are used and how fault-tolerant the write-back code is.
