So why not running workgroup server? Yeah, you must purchase 5 = concurrent

On unices, SQL*Forms was bundled with Oracle7 server. That's why it supports SQL*Net 2. Without SQL*Net 2 there is no possibility to connect to MTS for example.
I'm not sure, but on MS-DOS world, SQL*Forms comes from Oracle6 bundle. So it only supports SQL*Net 1.
