What are servers?

6.What are servers?
Ans.
1. Server provides some specific service access to the user.

 2. They must be configured before use, to gain access to the services provided by server it needs to be enabled and available to the user.

 3. Configuring and enabling the servers is duty of System administrator.

 4. System administrator decides when to enable a server and make it available for other users on network.

 5. Linux distributions used to ship all imaginable servers turned on by default, just installing the operating system on computer would install and configure with default parameters all the services available with the distribution.

 6. For instance, the standard red hat graphical user interface (GUI) requires a graphical layer called XFree86. This is a server.

 7. It runs even on a standalone machine with one user account, it must be configured.

 8. Fortunately Red hat this painless and configure these common servers by default settings. While shipping the distribution.


 9. Likewise printing in Linux takes place only after you configure the print server. Again this has become so easy as to be nearly trivial.

What are the server and client security considerations?

By
72.What are the server and client security considerations? Ans. Server security considerations: 1. Always use the root_squash option in /etc/exports. 2. Enabled by default so do not disable it. 3. With root squashing clients root account can’t even access or change files that only server’s root account can change or access. Client security considerations: 1. Disable SUID (set UID) programs on NFS mounts using nosuid option. 2. Prevents server’s root account from creating an SUID root program on an exported FS, logging in to the clients as a normal user, and then using the UID root program to become root on the client.
