Server
A system program that awaits requests from client programs across a
network, and services those requests. A server can be dedicated, in
which case this is its sole function, or non-dedicated, where the system
can be used in other ways, such as a workstation.
Server Message Block (SMB)
A protocol that enables client applications in a computer to read and
write files on a computer network and to request services from server
programs in a computer network for systems running Microsoft
Windows.
Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)
The TCP/IP standard protocol for transferring electronic mail messages
from one machine to another. SMTP specifies how two mail systems
interact and the format of control messages they exchange to transfer
mail.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
A network management protocol used almost exclusively in TCP/IP
networks. SNMP provides a means to monitor and control network
devices, and to manage configurations, statistics collection, performance
and security on a network.
Small Computer System Interface (SCSI)
A parallel interface standard used by Apple Macintosh computers, PCs
and many Unix systems for attaching peripheral devices to computers.
SCSI interfaces provide for faster data transmission rates (up to
80 Mb/s) than standard serial and parallel ports. In addition, you can
attach many devices to a single SCSI port, so that SCSI is really an
input/ouput bus rather than simply an interface. Although SCSI is an
ANSI standard, there are many variations, so two SCSI interfaces can be
incompatible. For example, SCSI supports several types of connectors.
