Книга посвящена операционной системе Linux. Приводятся подробные сведения о ее особенностях и возможностях, идеологии файловой системы, инсталляции и основных командах, вопросах компиляции ядра, настройках и сервисах. Большое внимание уделяется организации на базе Linux различных серверов и служб: электронной почты, WWW, FTP, INN, Proxy, NTP, а также проблемам администрирования сети, обеспечения безопасной работы и пр. Описаны способы настройки под Linux рабочих станций, в т. ч. и бездисковых, установки и эксплуатации на них графических сред типа X Window, а также конфигурирование модемных соединений, принтеров и сканеров, отладка взаимодействия с Linux-машинами такой `экзотической` периферии, как карманные компьютеры, мобильные телефоны, TV-тюнеры и т. п. Рассматриваемые в книге конфигурационные файлы и структура каталогов соответствуют дистрибутиву Red Hat Linux 7.x, тем не менее, при минимальной адаптации все упоминаемые в книге пакеты устанавливаются в любом дистрибутиве Linux.

Compiled by Red Hat Software, Inc., the company that has assembled the most popular x86 installation of Linux, this command reference is massive, authoritative, and as complete as any reference can be.

Linux also features a detailed kernel reference guide and a good index. And if the print size bothers you, the entire contents of the book are included on the companion CD-ROM, along with the Unix version of the Adobe Acrobat reader. In Acrobat, you can adjust the font size to something more readable.
