Linux System Administration

by Roderick W. Smith, Craig Hunt

Linux is legendary for its stability and reliability -- and for its steep and slippery learning curve. If you're learning to administer Linux in a professional capacity, use this book to boost your knowledge from competent to expert. You'll start by installing Linux on your server and learning the ins and outs of the administrative tools, then move on through setting up user accounts and implementing security to managing file systems, printing, and serial communications. Includes coverage of troubleshooting performance problems, networking Linux via TCP/IP, electronic mail, and clustering.
