Yes, note that nothing server-centric is really opposed to being client
or desktop oriented as any machine may need to provide a mix of services
while running as a client itself. Consider a single machine acting as a
server for LTSP thin clients and/or multiuser freenx sessions as an
example. It would likely provide dhcp/dns/http/ftp/samba/nfs/email and
perhaps act as a nat internet gateway, but it still needs all desktop
functionality for multiple users.
