Abstract

The Linux, the open source Operating System, or Linux OS, is a freely distributable, crossplatform operating system based on Unix that can be installed on PCs, laptops, net books, mobile and tablet devices, video game consoles, servers, supercomputers and more. This Linux logo was suggested by Linux Torvalds in 1996.Just like Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Mac OS X, Linux is an operating system. Linux is also distributed under an open source license. In fact, most versions of Linux offer what is called a Live distribution – which means you run the operating system from either a CD/DVD or USB flash drive without making any changes to your hard drive. Anyone can get the full functionality without having to commit to the installation. Once you’ve tried it out, and decided you wanted to use it, you simply double-click the “Install” icon and walk through the simple installation wizard. Actually, The Large or medium organizations need a server system to maintain their complex IT infrastructure. Day by day in every peer, networks make problematic in the way of security and resource sharing for medium or large size organizations. Since the server is slightly costly, here I have tried to design a cost effective server system of this type of organization. Hopefully, this system provides almost all the service needed by an organization to maintain their infrastructure and this system will increase the reliability and network security for their network. This is the design which is implemented by using VMware Workstation 10.0 and Centos 6.5. After implementing of all services, this system is tested in different stages and it works successfully as a prototype. Perhaps, In the near future I need to improve centralize login system to get better performance for windows users.
