TCP/IP v4
TCP/IP v6
IPX
AppleTalk
TCP/IP, usually either IPv4 or IPv6. Others, such as IPX or AppleTalk are possible, but long obsolete.
look up the tcp/ip set of protocols
I'm not sure what you mean by "directly." Data can be transferred between the two through many protocols. Most networking protocols are platform-agnostic, meaning they can be sent and received on any network-capable operating system. If Linux has a Samba client installed, it can access files made available on a Windows share. If Windows has an NFS client installed, it can access Linux / Unix NFS shares.
The same thing as networking in Windows or OS X: The system by which Linux will be able to communicate with other computers.
This question is not specific enough to answer. Are you referring to .net or perhaps to support for networking? You must be much more specific.
Networking in Linux is just like networking in windows. If you are using a debian based distribution then you can use network manager to select a wireless network. If you are talking about networking as in communicating with a windows machine you can use sanba the program for that.
i want to learn networking... which is the the best field windows networking or linux? which is the best future field? please tell me.......

Yes OS X supports P2P protocols and many other common protocols to windows, so there should not be a problem as long as you have compatible software.
The OSI model came after TCP/IP networking protocols were available in networks. The OSI description also as to describe and identify networking components that do not exist in the TCP/IP model.
There is no "Linux messenger." There are several clients available for Linux, however. The most popular one, Pidgin, does not support webcams. aMSN (for Windows Live Messenger) and Kopete (for all protocols) does. Virtually all webcams are supported out of the box in the Linux kernel, so no extra work is needed, other than to use a capable client.
