what's the purpose of TCP/IP protocol?
I am having a tough time trying to answer these questions and it seems like I can't find an answer to them. This is not an assignment questions , it's just for the revision because I'll be writing an examination in a couple of days.Please help me.
1.What is the purpose of TCP/IP protocol in the internet implementation.
2.Discuss two major functions od a client/server network operating system.

IP = Internet Protocol - for communicating on internet.
Note: it is not - Internet Protocol Protocol (<>IPP)
Among its uses is by TCP, which runs 'over' it. hence
TCP/IP = TCP over IP
see also: ISO/OSI re: layered topology
network operating system (NOS) main function is serving. Such as for files, for communications, etc.
For client / server, try posting questions in the topic areas (TAs) for database(s).
> "1.What is the purpose of TCP/IP protocol in the internet implementation."
Well, what is it you have learned so far about its purpose in all other implementations? ;)
> "two major functions od a client/server "
(a) to have client; (b) to have server
Note that much can lie in context, in usage, to determine any... 'best' answer, which usually lies in the mind of a grader. I not one prepared to read such mind. Or adapt, either.

I recommend a pt split betwen myself and other contributing experts

Oops - the new interface sucks so much I didn't even notice the pt split already had taken place (what was I thinking not using oldlook.experts-exchange.c
That's just great.

TCP/IP is a combination of 2 protocols to ensure a packet which is sent from the sender to the receiver will arrive in a correct way.
TCP provides the control that the content of the package is not changed during transport
IP provides the address of the source and the destination. The IP will be used for determining the routes.

Can you clarify "client/server network operating system"?
Do you mean client/server applications?
