I want a Windows machine to act as a server, being able to open ports to clients and send data to them over the Internet.
Is it possible to install Windows on any server to act like it or should I purchase Windows Server?
I have never truly worked with servers before so I know my questions is silly. :) Thanks for response.

You can install a normal windows on server computer and can do a lot of things with but if you have specific things to do, maybe you can try windows server and if it what you want, you can buy one ;)

Please help me find information on how to get unauthorized access to a PC on Windows 10. I know that this can be done through metasploit, Darksomet RAT and through RDP hacking. But if there are any other ways to do this so that the victim does not know that it has been hacked.
Thank you very much in advance.

I use metasploit, dark comet RAT and hack via RDP. But we need more information and options on this issue.

In Windows 7, I'm using a proxy server to browse the internet. It just routes http packets. I need to keep the Windows time accurate and synced with global time servers.
What's my best solution?
Thanks
One option specifically for Windows is htp. I have not used it.
Another option if there are other servers in your network is to time synchronize with them using NTP

I recall from a while ago, I used a command that enabled me to see what version of SMB (CIFS/SMB1/SMB2) active mounts were using.
For the life of me I can't remember the command nor can I find it anywhere online.
What is the command line command to display active mounts and their negotiated connection method in OS X?
Thank you for your help in advance.
First establish a connection to a shared volume, and then, enter the following command in Terminal:
smbutil statshares -m /path/to/mount
The -m switch means that you will specify the mount point. You can also use the -a switch to specify all.

This sounds dumb, but how do you set up an SMTP server in Windows 7 (not Windows Server)? After researching on Google, all I get are either tutorials on how to set up your inbox in an email client or how to set up an SMTP server using Windows Server.
Windows 7 doesn't include SMTP service so you need to install Remote Server Administration Tools.
After that you should be able to find configuration instructions, like SMTP in IIS.

I want to run a script on Ubuntu when the network is connected. The main aim should be to update the time as soon as the first connection to Internet is established.
I know that scripts from /etc/network/if-up.d/ should be executed. Placing a script in this folder with just
date -u > /tmp/test.time
is not executed cause /tmp/ doesn't show any test.time. I don't know if this has an influence, but I have configured a static IP-address.
So my question is how to execute a script (resp. commands) when the connection to Internet is established? and How to install it to run after boot?
Have a look at Upstart: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
You can hook-up your scripts to various system events. Their documentation explains that all. I think you need net-device-up event, look for it in documentation.
