#A server program is a program that runs on a server machine while a client program runs on a client machine.

A server that sits between a client application, such as a Web browser, and a real server. It intercepts all requests to the real server to see if it can fulfill the requests itself. If not, it forwards the request to the real server.

Client side scripting the processing is done on the clients computer meaning it uses their cpu. Example would be javascript. Server side means it is done on the server or webserver and the results are brought back and displayed for you.  An example would be PHP.

A client ftp would be the actual software you use to upload or download to the ftp server. The ftp server would actually be the host of the files that your are downloading, sort of like storage. Yes two clients can exchange files via ftp. This is similiar to the file tranfer function in yahoo messenger. I cant confirm if that uses ftp though more than likely its just a direct connection.

Client/server describes the relationship between two computer programs in which one program, the client, makes a service request from another program, the server, which fulfills the request. Although the client/server idea can be used by programs within a single computer, it is a more important idea in a network. In a network, the client/server model provides a convenient way to interconnect programs that are distributed efficiently across different locations. Computer transactions using the client/server model are very common. For example, to check your bank account from your computer, a client program in your computer forwards your request to a server program at the bank. That program may in turn forward the request to its own client program that sends a request to a database server at another bank computer to retrieve your account balance. The balance is returned back to the bank data client, which in turn serves it back to the client in your personal computer, which displays the information for you. \nThe client/server model has become one of the central ideas of network computing. Most business applications being written today use the client/server model. So does the Internet's main program, TCP/IP. In marketing, the term has been used to distinguish distributed computing by smaller dispersed computers from the "monolithic" centralized computing of mainframe computers. But this distinction has largely disappeared as mainframes and their applications have also turned to the client/server model and become part of network computing. \n\nIn the usual client/server model, one server, sometimes called a daemon, is activated and awaits client requests. Typically, multiple client programs share the services of a common server program. Both client programs and server programs are often part of a larger program or application. Relative to the Internet, your Web browser is a client program that requests services (the sending of Web pages or files) from a Web server (which technically is called a Hypertext Transport Protocol or HTTP server) in another computer somewhere on the Internet. Similarly, your computer with TCP/IP installed allows you to make client requests for files from File Transfer Protocol (FTP) servers in other computers on the Internet.

A socket represents a single connection between two network applications. These two applications nominally run on different computers, but sockets can also be used for interprocess communication on a single computer. Applications can create multiple sockets for communicating with each other. Sockets are bidirectional, meaning that either side of the connection is capable of both sending and receiving data.\n\nProgrammers often use sockets in network programming, albeit indirectly. Programming libraries like Winsock hide many of the low-level details of socket programming. Sockets have been in widespread use since the early 1980s.

look into "ssi includes" on the web. It means server side includes. You usually need the file to be a shtml, or PHP, but PHP is handled differently. SHTML is the easiest.\n\nhttp://www.ssi-developer.net/ssi/ssi-include.shtml

An application server is a server computer in a computer network dedicated to running certain software applications. The term also refers to the software installed on such a computer to facilitate the serving (running) of other applications.\n\nApplication server products typically bundle middleware to enable applications to intercommunicate with various qualities of service — reliability, security, non-repudiation, and so on. Application servers also provide an API to programmers, so that they don't have to be concerned with the operating system or the huge array of interfaces required of a modern web-based application. Communication occurs through the web in the form of HTML and XML, as a link to various databases, and, quite often, as a link to systems and devices ranging from huge legacy applications to small information devices, such as an atomic clock or a home appliance.\n\nPortals are a very common application server mechanism by which organizations can manage information. They provide a single point of entry for all users, they can access Web services transparently from any device, and they are highly flexible. Portals can work inside or outside of the organization, and they can attach themselves to any part of it.\n\n\n\nThe term Web server can mean one of two things:\n\nA computer that is responsible for accepting HTTP requests from clients, which are known as Web browsers, and serving them Web pages, which are usually HTML documents and linked objects (images, etc.). \nA computer program that provides the functionality described in the first sense of the term\n\nAlthough Web server programs differ in detail, they all share some basic common features.\n\nHTTP responses to HTTP requests: every Web server program operates by accepting HTTP requests from the network, and providing an HTTP response to the requester. The HTTP response typically consists of an HTML document, but can also be a raw text file, an image, or some other type of document; if something bad is found in client request or while trying to serve the request, a Web server has to send an error response which may include some custom HTML or text messages to better explain the problem to human people (people trying to fetch a web page, etc.). \nLogging: usually Web servers have also the capability of logging some detailed information, about client requests and server responses, to log files; this allows the Webmaster to collect statistics by running log analyzers on log files. \nIn practice many Web servers implement the following features too.\n\nConfigurability of available features by configuration files or even by an external user interface. \nAuthentication, optional authorization request (request of user name and password) before allowing access to some or all kind of resources. \nHandling of not only static content (file content recorded in server's filesystem(s)) but of dynamic content too by supporting one or more related interfaces (SSI, CGI, SCGI, FastCGI, PHP, ASP, ASP .NET, Server API such as NSAPI, ISAPI, etc.). \nModule support, in order to allow the extension of server capabilities by adding or modifying software modules which are linked to the server software or that are dynamically loaded (on demand) by the core server. \nHTTPS support (by SSL or TLS) in order to allow secure (encrypted) connections to the server on the standard port 443 instead of usual port 80. \nContent compression (i.e. by gzip encoding) to reduce the size of the responses (to lower bandwidth usage, etc.). \nVirtual Host to serve many web sites using one IP address. \nLarge file support to be able to serve files whose size is greater than 2 GB on 32 bit OS. \nBandwidth throttling to limit the speed of responses in order to not saturate the network and to be able to serve more clients.

client server, two tier, is comprised of two components: the client that sits on a workstation and a database server. The client communicates directly with the database and processes the information locally.\n\nthree tier architecture is comprised of a client, a middle  tier, and a database server.  The client communicates to the middle server, the middle server communicates to the database server.  Usually the middle server holds or pools the database connections. The middle tier usually takes the form of a web server that sends information back to the client so it can be rendered. \n\nhth, r

That information should be kept on the server and not the local machine.  So it does not matter.  Just reinstall.\n\nHope this helps and GL :-)

hi dear \nclient is a computer which access data from server \na server can have many clients but a client can have a single server \nyes many computer can b attached using host & guest options\nbut client server is something like a office in which all employee are doing different work in parts  on a same work & all will b tied & made a complete work on a server \nbye & take care...........

first b/w an exe and a process...the difference is not much except that an exe is essentially a file of executable machine code resting on ur hard disk statically....where as a process is those same bits and bytes doing there rounds in the processor and the RAM i.e the exe is now being executed.\n\na process is a whole machine code which is being executed as in a whole complete progam which can have multiple instances e.g. two internet explorers opening different webpages they would be two entirely different processes executing the same machine code...\n\na thread on the other hand is a part of a process(process within a process executing a specific task) for example take a process that is supposed to do multitasking mmmm...let's say u call up a customer service desk...now somebody else too calls up after a sec u make the call now both of u hear the same voice prompts ...all this is handled by the same application or process that is being executed what i mean to say is that the other caller does not have to wait while u get through with ur stuff i.e. the program is over with u...another example will be say in a webpage there is a timer running also there is an ad being displayed ....both are different threads supposed to perform different actions but they are essentially a part of the single process that owns them....\n\nhope this gives u a clear picture\nas for the number of process and threads are determined by the programmer for the latter and the OS or the user in the former case\n\nbye...

The differences between Java and .NET is mostly of the syntax and libraries.\n\nBecause both of them work on same architectural concepts and frameworks.

Basically what happens is the information in the form will be sent back to your server to whatever "program" you specify in the action argument.  Generally speaking this information is passed off to some sort of sever side processing route.. forexample you could have the form information post to an ASP, or PHP page that will process the information and return a response (html page)...\n\nsome of the most populaer server side languages are Active Server Pages (microsoft), PHP, and Java Server Pages/servlets.  I've provided general links below. Hopefully this helps.

As and example, instead of having to write every function you might need you can call functions using the interface provide by an  API. Assuming you can find an API that does what you want.\n\n\nAn application programming interface (API) is the interface that a computer system, library or application provides in order to allow requests for service to be made of it by other computer programs, and/or to allow data to be exchanged between them

no the program is on your computer. You can't load a program twice. It will only run the one. so one or the other of you will be logged on while the other has to wait. I'm sorry. :(
