Product Details
- Essential System Administration,3rd Edition is the definitive guide for Unix system administration, covering all the fundamental and essential tasks required to run such divergent Unix systems as AIX, FreeBSD, HP-UX, Linux, Solaris, Tru64 and more. Essential System Administration provides a clear, concise, practical guide to the real-world issues that anyone responsible for a Unix system faces daily. The new edition of this indispensable reference has been fully updated for all the latest operating systems. Even more importantly, it has been extensively revised and expanded to consider the current system administrative topics that administrators need most. Essential System Administration,3rd Edition covers: DHCP, USB devices, the latest automation tools, SNMP and network management, LDAP, PAM, and recent security tools and techniques. Essential System Administration is comprehensive. But what has made this book the guide system administrators turn to over and over again is not just the sheer volume of valuable information it provides, but the clear, useful way the information is presented. It discusses the underlying higher-level concepts, but it also provides the details of the procedures needed to carry them out. It is not organized around the features of the Unix operating system, but around the various facets of a system administrator's job. It describes all the usual administrative tools that Unix provides, but it also shows how to use them intelligently and efficiently. Whether you use a standalone Unix system, routinely provide administrative support for a larger shared system, or just want an understanding of basic administrative functions, Essential System Administration is for you. This comprehensive and invaluable book combines the author's years of practical experience with technical expertise to help you manage Unix systems as productively and painlessly as possible.

LAN Editorial Review
The Essential System Administration: Tools and Techniques for Linux and Unix Administration, 3rd Edition has received mixed reviews from customers. While the content of the book is highly regarded, the ebook version seems to have some significant drawbacks. One customer complains about the lack of exact page numbers in the ebook, making it difficult to use for class preparation or referencing to others. Additionally, the formatting of the ebook is described as mediocre and poorly made, with errors such as random spaces and missing letters. On the other hand, customers praise the book for its comprehensive coverage of system administration topics. It is Considered a valuable resource for sys admins, providing all the necessary information and cheat sheets. The book is also commended for its timeless and classic nature, offering historical perspectives not found in other texts. However, it's important to note that this book specifically focuses on Unix based systems and may not be suitable for Windows admins. It is recommended for individuals who want a strong foundation in Linux and Unix administration but may not cover the latest distributions. Overall, while the content and information provided in the book are highly regarded, the ebook version seems to have significant flaws that may hinder its usefulness.
