Generally speaking, no. Windows has a slower patch cycle than most Linux distributions, thus exploits are exposed for longer and have a greater probability of being hit.
Linux
There is security on Linux and there is no security on Windows. Well, there is, but it's quite weak compared to Linux. Among other: -Better rights management -Kernel security modules, some of which were developed by US government, and some by security-specialized companies, so you have the idea. -Since Linux is extensively used for server solutions, you can guess that most of server software is pretty much top-notch.
Linux is better than Windows for servers because it is more stable and more secure which are two important reasons why it is better for your server and why you can trust it more.
In my personal opinion, No, a Linux server is the better answer for the web. I would recommend a windows server only when running asp/.net, and with the introduction of mono (an apache module), Linux machines can run .net (although I've never used this, myself, and it is in its infancy). Linux, in general, has much better thread and memory handling than Windows. In a multi-threaded web server, it should serve you better. Remember, that things like this are always a personal preference type of thing, and the debate between Windows and Linux is fierce. My advice would be to look up benchmarking information for Windows web servers and Linux web servers, and see which would suit your needs.
There are Windows Server, Linux, BSD, and even Apple's own server
Linux is more powerful then windows
Windows is better for desktop computers. Linux is better for servers.
They have a Linux/windows hybrid system.
Active Server Page, or ASP, is a Microsoft language. So, the most common answer is Windows. Linux will support some versions of the ASP language, but there are better alternatives for Linux, such as PHP.
yes. we can
To function as a server a computer must be running as a WINDOWS based server i.e windows 2000, windows NT, windows 2k3, windows 2k8 editions of server installed on computer the server could be Linux based as well.
PHP on windows runs using the WAMP Server while on Linux it runs using the LAMP Server. Try getting a LAMP Server from a search engine
