The term "server" can mean different things:
1) A role in an interaction between two programs. The "client" is the one
which issues requests, and the "server" is the one which fullfills
them.
2) A program which is intended for the server role. Note that a program
can be a server for one protocol and a client for another (e.g., a
database server can be a DNS or LDAP client). (And some programs are
even server and client for the same protocol)
3) A machine intended for running server programs.
You are thinking of the 3rd meaning. My guess is that Albert meant the
first.
