Quick Evaluation of AccuRev(Windows) : AccuRev’s Client-Server Architecture

AccuRev’s Client-Server Architecture
AccuRev operations use a simple client-server model:
A user invokes a client program: either the command-line interface (CLI) program accurev, or the graphical user interface (GUI) program acgui. The computer that client program runs on is called the client machine.
The client program sends each user command (as a transaction request) to the server program, which is running on the server machine. The request is sent via TCP/IP, using a particular host and port number combination. The server program executes the request by accessing the AccuRev repository on the server machine. If the request modifies the repository, the server program records the change as a transaction in one of the repository’s storage depots.
The client machine and server machine can be the same computer. (That’s the most likely setup for a pre-sales evaluation of AccuRev.) By changing the TCP/IP host and port number combination, a client program can “switch its attention” back and forth among multiple servers.
