Frequently Asked Questions

Q 2r-09: How can a server identify the client that has called it?

DCE Frequently Asked Questions
The details vary, depending on exactly what you want to identify about the client, but it all comes down to handles. The server must receive a binding handle in order receive information about the client. If there is not a binding handle in the parameter list as defined in the IDL file, then use the [explicit_handle] attribute in the ACF file to add one when building the server.

Q 2r-05: Can a process be both a server and a client?

DCE Frequently Asked Questions
A program might act as a server for interface A, and also as a client for interface B. This is easy. The program merely imports interface B like a normal client and exports interface A like a normal server. A program might want to provide a service, and also act as a client to other servers that provide the same service. In this case, the programmer must expend more effort. The problem is that the names of the server-side functions (manager routines) clash with the names of the client stubs.

Q 2r-08: How can a server detect that a client has exited or crashed?

DCE Frequently Asked Questions
The context handle provides this ability. When a context handle is created and passed to the client, the DCE runtime library keeps track of the connection between client and server; this may be done in the network code as in the case of TCP, or by DCE-specific ping messages if a connectionless protocol is used. When the client dies, the server is notified and executes a "rundown" function to clean up its data structures.

Q.) What is a Virtual Server?

F.A.Q.'s
A.) A Physical Machine (dedicated server) subdivided into multiple and separate "virtual" systems. Since one single machine can host multiple Virtual Servers, the cost of each individual Virtual Server is significantly less than the cost of a dedicated server. All this without sacrificing performance, flexibility, and power. We have designed our Virtual Servers to maximize customer control, and design of their own web site.

Q.) What is a Dedicated Server?

F.A.Q.'s
A.) A Dedicated server is a physical machine used for very large demand web sites, requiring hundreds of megabytes, millions of hits, and high reliability. Dedicated servers also allow you to host hundreds of virtual domain accounts.

What is client-server mode? Why would I use it?

SEER*Stat Frequently Asked Questions
SEER*Stat can operate in one of two modes, "local" and "client-server". In local mode, all processing and data are local to your PC environment; that is, your PC performs all calculations, and the program and data files are stored on the PC's hard drive, your local network, or a CD. In client-server mode, the SEER*Stat software installed on your PC is the client and contacts the SEER server via the Internet to access data and perform calculations. Internet Connection Not Required.

Why is the X usage of "server" and "client" backwards from everyone else's?

tinyX Window System Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) List
People who have worked in LAN-type environments are easily confused by the X notions of client and server. In such a scenario, one might have dozens of "client" machines, each running an X server which uses the network to connect to X clients (application programs) running on the "server" in the machine room. However, X's client/server terminology makes perfect sense if one thinks about what resources are in demand, and what program's job it is to service requests.

How does security context get established between client and server?

CORBASEC Frequently Asked Questions and Answers
Olivier Onimus (July, 1998) : This is done by sending client's credentials. The server can authenticate the client and get the session key with which the communication will be encrypted. Then the communication will be encrypted, using this context. The credentials are not sent anymore, only a reference on an existing context. Jonathan Biggar (July, 1998) : [in addition to the above] The encryption is optional, depending on the Quality of Protection (QoP) you have chosen.

Hmm..I'm confused. What does a client do? What's a server?

Undernet IRC FAQ [Part I] (updated 1st June 1996)
irc client reads in the commands that you give it, and parses them. It filters them and performs the appropriate actions, and if necessary, passes them on to a 'server'. An IRC server can serve many other clients. The server holds information about the channels and people on IRC, amongst other pieces of information. It is also responsible for routing your messages to other people on IRC.
