Over the last few years, Linux has grown both as an operating
system and a tool for personal and business use. Simultaneously
becoming more user friendly and more powerful as a back-end system,
Linux has achieved new plateaus: the newer filesystems have
solidified, new commands and tools have appeared and become
standard, and the desktop--including new desktop environments--have
proved to be viable, stable, and readily accessible to even those
who don't consider themselves computer gurus.
Whether you're using Linux for personal software projects, for a
small office or home office (often termed the SOHO environment), to
provide services to a small group of colleagues, or to administer a
site responsible for millions of email and web connections each
day, you need quick access to information on a wide range of tools.
This book covers all aspects of administering and making effective
use of Linux systems. Among its topics are booting, package
management, and revision control. But foremost in "Linux in a
Nutshell" are the utilities and commands that make Linux one of the
most powerful and flexible systems available.
Now in its fifth edition, "Linux in a Nutshell" brings users
up-to-date with the current state of Linux. Considered by many to
be the most complete and authoritative command reference for Linux
available, the book covers all substantial user, programming,
administration, and networking commands for the most common Linux
distributions.
Comprehensive but concise, the fifth edition has been updated to
cover new features of major Linux distributions. Configuration
information for the rapidly growing commercial network services and
community update services isone of the subjects covered for the
first time.
But that's just the beginning. The book covers editors, shells,
and LILO and GRUB boot options. There's also coverage of Apache,
Samba, Postfix, sendmail, CVS, Subversion, Emacs, vi, sed, gawk,
and much more. Everything that system administrators, developers,
and power users need to know about Linux is referenced here, and
they will turn to this book again and again.
