=== {{anchor|IntranetWare|FSB}}NetWare 4.1x and NetWare for Small Business === [[File:Thai language books in donation pile including one on NetWare (crop).jpg|thumb|right|A book on NetWare published in Thai]] Novell priced NetWare 4.10 similarly to NetWare 3.12, allowing customers who resisted NDS (typically small businesses) to try it at no cost. Later Novell released NetWare version 4.11 in 1996 which included many enhancements that made the operating system easier to install, easier to operate, faster, and more stable. It also included the first full 32-bit client for [[Microsoft Windows]]-based workstations, [[Symmetric multiprocessing|SMP]] support and the NetWare Administrator (NWADMIN or NWADMN32), a GUI-based administration tool for NetWare. Previous administration tools used the [[Cworthy]] interface, the character-based GUI tools such as SYSCON and PCONSOLE with blue text-based background. Some of these tools survive to this day, for instance MONITOR.NLM. Novell packaged NetWare 4.11 with its Web server, TCP/IP support and the [[Netscape]] browser into a bundle dubbed '''IntranetWare''' (also written as intraNetWare). A version designed for networks of 25 or fewer users was named '''IntranetWare for Small Business''' and contained a limited version of NDS and tried to simplify NDS administration. The intranetWare name was dropped in NetWare 5. During this time Novell also began to leverage its directory service, NDS, by tying their other products into the directory. Their e-mail system, [[Novell GroupWise|GroupWise]], was integrated with NDS, and Novell released many other directory-enabled products such as [[Novell ZENworks|ZENworks]] and [[Novell BorderManager|BorderManager]]. NetWare still required IPX/SPX as NCP used it, but Novell started to acknowledge the demand for TCP/IP with NetWare 4.11 by including tools and utilities that made it easier to create intranets and link networks to the Internet. Novell bundled tools, such as the IPX/IP gateway, to ease the connection between IPX workstations and IP networks. It also began integrating Internet technologies and support through features such as a natively hosted [[web server]].
