When do you install the network operating system?
If we need to allow personal computers to participate in computer network and shared file and printer access within a local area network (LAN). At that time after physically connecting the server computer to the network, we can install the network operating system (NOS) on the server.
What part of a computer coordinates all communication between other computers?
The networking card coordinates the communication between computers. This system responds to requests in order to establish a network. Routers are computers with the dedicated purpose of coordinating communication between the computers on a network and between computers on the local network and larger networks - including the Internet. They are a key element within networks.
What is the difference between a network operating system and operating system security?

Personnel computer that is connected to a network is?
From a network topology perspective, a personal computer that is connected to the network is a node. From a software/OS perspective, this would be a network client, but personal computers can act as, or serve the role of, a server, but I think that is out of scope of the question.
Do you think that network computer will replace personal computer in many applications?
No, network computers are linked together over a particular network and any computer over the network works a personal computer if an operating system is installed that supports personal computing such as windows and Macintosh.

Why do apple computers and personal computers not agree?
Apple Computers are in fact personal computers, but the "PC" moniker typically is applied to Windows computers. Historically Apple computers used different processor architectures than Windows computers, but now a days an Apple computer, running Mac OS, and a PC, running Windows OS, are identical in terms of hardware they just run different software. The difference in software is the primary reason why the computers "do not agree". The different OSes have very different User Interfaces and get followings of people who are more dedicated to one interface or the other. Mac and Apple computers cannot "Network" at the user level as many home users would expect them to because of the difference in OS. It is somewhat like the two computers speaking different languages.
The computer that can send files to different computers on a network is?
