An interface for university applications using C-language, featuring faculty, student, and course registration, course enrollment and dropping, and user authentication for various roles.

- Course Registration.
- Enroll Courses.
- Drop Courses.

There are two C files that needs to be executed. First execute server.c from one terminal and then go for client.c. Once both are connected. We are ready to go.
Roles implemented: Faculty, Student, Admin.
Account holders have to pass through a login system to enter their accounts, and all these User accounts will be managed by the Administrator.
Server maintains three files as Databases (Course, Faculty and Student) and serves multiple clients concurrently. Clients can connect to the server and access their specific academic details.
To handle concurrent client requests fork system call is used.
To compile server
gcc server.c -o server.out -lcrypt
