 Makes things so much easier
I have been working as a systems admin for the last 6 months. I wish i had this book when i first started. It breaks things up clearly and is easy to follow. It is the only book that I have read on the subject that can be read from cover to cover instead of as a reference.
Fantastic!
This book is a god-sent book for beginner Linux administrators! I just can't stress enough how perfectly good the book is laid-out, how it is easy to read, and at the same time how good it covers the topics, given the book size, and the size of topics (some of them needs BOOKS to be covered).
By reading the book I went from a Webmin-dependent user who only had _some_ ideas of how the stuff works on my servers, to person who can administer server using command-line only, and actually understand what I'm doing, most of the time :)
Sure, there's a lot to learn, as the book doesn't cover it all, but once you finish reading it, you'll be standing on a very solid ground from which you can go to higher levels of Linux administration knowledge.
Linux Admjnistration:A Beginners Guide
The product was in A one shape,it took four days to receive. I give them five stars.
Wow!
This a well written book, easy to ready and contains wealth of information for any Linux enthusiast or on IT professional. Whether you're studying for your Linux certification, learning Linux administration from scratch, or just need a solid companion in the world of Linux administration - this book is a must have! It's a 4edition and it must tell you something, at least.
What makes this book a steal is the variety of information presented. Don't be alarmed by its 600 pages. Every bit of it is important. As in many Linux books though, some topics are so complex they require additional information, especially if you need more in depth knowledge. However, whether it's Samba, LDAP, FTP, Apache, Kernel compilation - the information is presented in a very well organized manner.
You must note though, this is a Beginner's Guide. If you are a seasoned Linux admin, this book is probably not for you.
5 stars!
Wonderful
This book does the best job i've seen covering all the aspects needed to make the move from windows to linux administration. It also makes for an excellent reference for someone just starting out in linux that need a foothold to get going. I just wish I had found this book 3 years ago when i first started playing around with linux, it would have made my life so much easier. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in linux.
