Could you specify what "earlier" OS means in the below MS article? I could not find that information and want to be sure which system are affected.

    Hi ,

    Welcome to our new Q&A platform.

    NBT(NetBIOS over TCP) for use by NetBIOS is supported on Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows NT, and Windows Me/98/95.

    So the earlier OS means Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows NT, and Windows Me/98/95.

    For your reference:
