file server
     
        hardware and software that together provide file-handling and
        storage functions for multiple users on a local area
        network.  the most common choices for file server software
        are sun microsystems' network file system for unix and
        novell netware for ibm pc compatibles.  there is also a
        version of nfs for pcs called pc-nfs.  storing files on a
        file server saves having multiple copies stored on individual
        computers, thus economising on disk space and also makes
        administrating and updating the files easier.
