Which term describes a central storage resource accessible to network clients for user documents?

• A. File Server
• B. Web Server
• C. Domain Controller
• D. DHCP Server

Answer: (A)

A file server provides a central storage resource accessible to network clients for user documents. It stores files and shares them across the network, allowing users to access, save, and manage documents from different devices while enforcing permissions and quotas, often using protocols like SMB/CIFS or NFS. This setup is specifically designed for centralized storage and file sharing. In contrast, a web server delivers websites, a domain controller manages user authentication and domain policies, and a DHCP server assigns IP addresses and network configuration.
