The narrow view of the server only defines toys.
I am having trouble finding anything in here about UNIX servers. For that matter, I am having trouble finding anything on X servers. In the case of x servers, the model is turned around 180 degrees. If there are no clients and no servers then this book is mislabeled. The Internet is based on UNIX. If it wanted to be an SQL book it should have said so. Again be sure to notice which the client is and which the server is as they are reversed in this book.
