You'll need to be more specific. Server and client are broad terms. Do you mean the computer running a server OS like W2K Server or Windows 2003 Or which machine opened a communication channel and which machine is using the channel
In general terms a server is any machine that provides some service or functionality whereas a client is the machine that requests and uses the service or functionality. For example when you have a file share your machine is acting as a server to anyone connecting to the share (they are the client). If you are running SQL, FTP, IIS, or whatever then you are acting as a server. When your machine starts up chances are it is a client to the DHCP server running on the network.
Furthermore most machines are both servers and clients. For example an IIS machine that talks to a separate SQL machine is both a client and a server. It is a server to web browsers and a client to the SQL Server. If you can be more specific about what you are looking for we might be able to help.
