It depends which armed forces you are a member of.
Generally you do not salute warrant officers. Salutes are reserved for commissioned officers.
A commission is only granted by the head of state. Such commissioned officers grant warrants, hence the name.
Countries have different rules regarding warrants and warrant officers. Some you salute, depending on rank and other criteria.

This really depends on the SOP of the post, but in general the answer is no.

Do you salute the president?

Yes you do. In the US Military, personal salute Comissoned Warrant officers, and Comissed officers, Foreign friendly Military members, The President, and medal of honor recipients. Like if you earned the Medal of Honor and you were a corporal or private, everybody would have to salute you, even generals. if you are enlistedmen or a non-commisioned officer (NCO) you do not salute eachother, so a E-man (enlisted) would not salute a NCO. Also if you are the lower rank, you have to salute the higher rank first and then the higher rank salutes you bak. But yes if you have to salute the President and you have to call him either "Sir", or "Mr. President". and nothing else except thos two names
