I was looking through a bunch of Gentoo documentation today and came upon the term "Gentoo Infrastructure Server". I did a Search on the forum and basically found nothing on it and was just wondering if someone could clarify what this terms refers to for me?

Is it talking about a server at some company infrastructure or something else?

Thanks.

Carlos

I belive the term refers to a DHCP, DNS servers and the like, which make up the structure of a network, as opposed to web or mail servers. I however, am an Economics major, and not very knowlegable in this type of thing. So I could be verywell be blowing smoke up your @$$ 8O.
