That's a bit vague.
Client-server was big a few years ago, with custom software at both ends.
Now, everything's on the Web (or at least an intranet). Many webservers run Linux, many clients run Windows with Firefox/Chrome/IE browsers. Interaction is generally handled within HTTP by HTML or JSON objects and HTTP cookies

it means that a service like internet access or file access is happening over a network. the service is provided by a linux system so we call it a SERVER. machines on the network that use this service are called CLIENTS. if this server can speak the 'network language' of windows, then it can be set up to interact with windows clients. it is quite common in offices to find a linux system serving many windows clients.
