Linux is nothing but an operating system that was started by Linus Torvalds, at the University of Helsinki in Finland. Linux is used for a large number of applications such as networking, development of software and as end-user platform. People often consider Linux to be an excellent and a not very expensive substitute to a lot of other expensive operating systems. Because of Linux’s good functions and its availability, it is quite in demand all across the world and a large number of s/w programmers are making use of the Linux’s source code in order to meet their individual needs. Linux is a total operating system, which has stability, reliability and is extremely powerful. It is also equipped with excellent networking facilities thus allowing you to share CPU’s, share modems etc. It also provides an operating system that is easily upgradeable. Linux has the largest market share as far as the Internet is concerned and also has a major share as a server operating system. A server is nothing but a computer that sits on a network waiting for clients to ask for things. It communicates with the world through its network cable. Many different server programs can be running at once and a server can thus be responding to many kinds of requests. The server is capable of responding to several requests in a quick and a simultaneous manner. Linux is a very good Internet server and it often outperforms Windows NT, Novell and many other Unix systems. It is also used by several leading businesses for its better network performance. Linux servers are a less expensive alternative to Microsoft servers Linux is not own by any one person. There are companies out there that have packaged this operating system for particular users. There are quite a few of them since it is still being developed as we speak of today. Some of the versions out there are: Red Hat- This distribution is the best know in the United States. There are chances of it being supported by large server hardware vendors like IBM, Hewlett-Packard and Dell. If you were considering using Linux as the server for your company, this would be considered to be the best due to the hardware support for it. SuSE – If your needs are more oriented towards home and small office, then this distribution is more suited for those first time users who want to experiment with it. This Linux version also offers support for large-scale servers. Linux-Mandrake- its reputation is that it is the easiest distribution for new Linux users to install and learn. There are quirks to its operations, but they are not harmful. Many other distributions exist out there. It is recommended to seek advice from LUGs (Linux User Group) which can provide advice you need to get started. Was this information helpful? | |||

In computing, the term server is used to refer to one of the following:a computer program running as a service, to serve the needs or requests of other programs (referred to in this context as "clients") which may or may not be running on the same computer.
a physical computer dedicated to running one or more such services, to serve the needs of programs running on other computers on the same network.
a software/hardware system (i.e. a software service running on a dedicated computer) such as a database server, file server, mail server, or print server.
In computer networking, a server is a program that operates as a socket listener.[1] The term server is also often generalized to describe a host that is deployed to execute one or more such programs.[2]
A server computer is a computer, or series of computers, that link other computers or electronic devices together. They often provide essential services across a network, either to private users inside a large organization or to public users via the internet. For example, when you enter a query in a search engine, the query is sent from your computer over the internet to the servers that store all the relevant web pages. The results are sent back by the server to your computer.
Many servers have dedicated functionality such as web servers, print servers, and database servers. Enterprise servers are servers that are used in a business context.

The Internet is a global system of interconnected computer networks that use the standard Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP) to serve billions o[censored]sers worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of millions of private, public, academic, business, and government networks, of local to global scope, that are linked by a broad array of electronic, wireless and optical networking technologies. The Internet carries a vast range of information resources and services, such as the inter-linked hypertext documents of the World Wide Web (WWW) and the infrastructure to support electronic mail.Most traditional communications media including telephone, music, film, and television are reshaped or redefined by the Internet, giving birth to new services such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and IPTV. Newspaper, book and other print publishing are adapting to Web site technology, or are reshaped into blogging and web feeds. The Internet has enabled or accelerated new forms of human interactions through instant messaging, Internet forums, and social networking. Online shopping has boomed both for major retail outlets and small artisans and traders. Business-to-business and financial services on the Internet affect supply chains across entire industries.
The origins of the Internet reach back to research of the 1960s, commissioned by the United States government in collaboration with private commercial interests to build robust, fault-tolerant, and distributed computer networks. The funding of a new U.S. backbone by the National Science Foundation in the 1980s, as well as private funding for other commercial backbones, led to worldwide participation in the development of new networking technologies, and the merger of many networks. The commercialization of what was by the 1990s an international network resulted in its popularization and incorporation into virtually every aspect of modern human life. As of 2009, an estimated quarter of Earth's population used the services of the Internet.
The Internet has no centralized governance in either technological implementation or policies for access and usage; each constituent network sets its own standards. Only the overreaching definitions of the two principal name spaces in the Internet, the Internet Protocol address space and the Domain Name System, are directed by a maintainer organization, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). The technical underpinning and standardization of the core protocols (IPv4 and IPv6) is an activity of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), a non-profit organization of loosely affiliated international participants that anyone may associate with by contributing technical expertise.
