Oracle7 answer: MTS was a hack to allow the same threaded software to work under any Unix (because not all Unixes support threading directly). NT has support for threads built in, so Oracle for NT was written to be multithreaded using that native support, and as such, "MTS" doesn't exist under NT. However, it *is* multithreaded.

I don't know about Oracle8.
