Linux has more good, fast and easy-to-use servers.
The TCP/IP stack is slightly faster
There is no limit as to amount of connections.
Guess that's it, aside from better security and speed of system itself.
Answer:Probably.
The same thing as networking in Windows or OS X: The system by which Linux will be able to communicate with other computers.
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.......
From a command line: ipconfig or, for more info: ipconfig /all From Windows itself, the control panel provides access to networking features and configuration.
Pretty much everything is faster in Linux than in Windows. The Windows programmers need to prove to their bosses that they are doing the right thing, but the Linux programmers only need to prove to their peers that they are doing the right thing when they make improvements. Linux has things like zero-copy networking, which are not widely implemented in the Windows kernel(s).
Linux *is* an operating system. So it's not meant to be compatible with a specific operating system. However, it can interoperate with other systems, which means that it can provide its own implementations of another operating systems features to make sure the user is able to use Linux with the other operating systems. For example, Linux interoperates with Windows by having filesystem drivers to vFat and NTFS, so that it may mount and manipulate Windows filesystems. It also has an open source implementation of SMB (Windows Networking.) called Samba, which can even share printers and files with Windows machines.
Different operating systems have differing features, though they all have the primary function of controlling the software and programs running on a computer or other device. Popular features include: A start menu or application menu (Windows, Linux) Multiple desktop workspaces (Linux, Mac OS X) Taskbar (Windows, Linux) or dock (Mac OS X, also Linux) to track favorite program shortcuts and active applications A desktop environment. Linux has GNOME or KDE (and a few others), Mac has Aqua, and Windows Vista has Aero. Desktop acceleration (Mac OS X, Linux using Compiz or similar, and Windows Vista Premium, Business, or Ultimate)
Linux, linux mint is a pretty popular but not as windows but it better than window. It has more features, more security, it is an anti virus system no virus has been invented or has or will for linux mint and linux
Preemptive (both Windows and Linux).
I assume you mean the OS on the server, if you want to go with windows your looking at windows server 2003 / 2008, windows small business server, windows home server. However alot of admins prefer linux, try FreeBSD.
Two operating systems are; Windows, and Linux.
